There are always those kind of buyers in the market. I don't care to spend much time with them.
Fortunately the Salt Lake city market is bucking the national trend and seeing sustained strength.
WOW - doesn't that sound like a scam? I would hope any seller desperate enough to take an offer off the street would get the funds certified (and if in cash, use one of those special pens that look for counterfeit bills:-)
But guess Leigh has a good point - though if I were the sellers, I think I'd go with being offended by the low ball. The lookers who didn't make an offer, in my opinion, just means that my house didn't fit their lifestyle or personal taste. Sort of like leaving a penny tip vs no tip. The penny sounds way more of an insult....

Good point, Rob. We also need to realize that when one of these "buyers" says that the house down the street will take X or the developer will take Y, that's not always true. Check it out before passing it on to your sellers.
p.s. Good communication among agents can also ferret out lots of the current scams.
