Even real estate agents have to be buyers in this competitive market. My husband and I toured on a Monday afternoon and upon entry knew this was the perfect house that we had been waiting for. We drove away and I was hopeful that it would be a late season non-competitive situation… That hope quickly faded when I checked in with the agent. She was already expecting about six offers and had set a deadline only hours away for all offers to be submitted. I quickly went to work and delivered a competitive offer, but learned only a little bit later that she had received 21 offers in full. We had little to no hope left, but did still amend our offer to try and make it stronger.
The stars aligned and we got the call at 8 PM that night that our offer was accepted! It was a good reminder of how slow the minutes pass as you await news! Never give up because it’s not always the sales price it’s the whole package… Terms matter!
