You heard of a LOW BALL Offer BUT have you heard of this?

What is next in the evolution of offers? Well, on a new listing needing some work, the home is priced to sell at $89,900 a steal any day. The buyers showed up in droves. One particular buyer wanted to make a cash offer on the spot. 

10 grand. Yes $10,000. Was he serious? I did not think so and i chuckled. But this buyer was serious and took out a bag of cash with the 10 grand asking if i can give him the keys?

Hold the phone. Time Out and excuse me, but NO, the seller will not sell this home for $10,000 first off. Second you would have to make an offer in writing, sign it, include a proof of funds and have the seller except it.

The buyers reply was there was no need for a proof of funds, he has cash, in hand, right here, right  now.

Then he told me how he took this course about buying investment property and they said he could buy any home with cash in hand.

Sorry Mr. New Investment Buyer, but no.... you can not name your own price for homes.

He left pondering why he was rejected. He refused to make a reasonable offer and left with his cash. He mumbled he had a buyer offer but he knew more than them, so came without them.

And how is your Monday starting out?

The lesson is that this is why a Buyer or Seller should not choose just any agent, choose the BEST agent for the job. My philosophy is simple, provide more personal and professional service to guide my clients through each step of the buying or selling process. All Agents are not created equal and every buyer or seller should take the time to hire the BEST not just the biggest. Those that hire me, find a dedication like no other. and for some, a seat next to me for an hour in the future watching the sun and surf. It is the best way to boost energy and produce more.
