Update - For Buyers - You've Been Calling About This Farm - But Someone Else Grabbed It Up!

I know, I know...I know it's not fair,

but you should have made your offer instead of hesitating!

 

There are those that are waiting for the price to get lower. 

 

They have missed the fact that it was already priced at a good buy.

 

But the family that looked yesterday didn't miss that fact.

 

They made their offer and the sellers accepted it. 

 

So some nice family, is going to be enjoying this country home in McCurtain County even though there are several people waiting, thinking they were going to buy it at some point.

 

 

It's mine

Saying "IT'S MINE" over and over will not get the offer in front of the sellers.

 

Sorry, it doesn't work that way. See bottom of post to review how it does work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don't listen to those "tv commentators" about holding off on a purchase that you really want when you can afford it and it's a good buy. 

 

 

 

They are just “common tators”.  Not Genuine Real Estate Spuds.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To Review How It Works:

  • Find a piece of land, home, building, lake lot, etc.
  • Call the banker and get pre-approved for a loan if it’s not a cash purchase.
  • Call me to go see the property.
  • Tell me how much you want to offer and terms of the offer.
  • I put it in writing and present it to the seller.
  • The sellers either accept the offer or counter the offer with a price and terms that they will accept.
  • Accept or counter their offer, etc. until
  • There's a contract and very soon you have the property that you wanted.

Judi thats a very good description of how it really does work.  Buyers can not wait and wait and wait when its already a good buy... someone else now has the good buy.  Life's lessons are sometimes hard learned.

We have a lot of those 'buyers' around here right now.  They keep waiting for prices to go down farther, but others are realizing it's time to buy so they are losing properties that are very near perfect for them.  Oh well, I'm sure the family who got off their behinds and put an offer in will be very happy in their new home.

Judi,  what a great graphic,  it seems so simple when stated and explained that way.  Sometimes it takes losing one or two before the buyer figures it out.

I had some of those buyers that kept on losing the property because they wanted to wait.  They thought they were smart.  They did not want to listen.  They called after two weeks and asked what was the status and I told them it's gone.

Gail, Absolutely.  It seems that as soon as one sells, everyone that has been looking at it, realizes that they missed the opportunity!

Jane, It's really quite simple isn't it?  If you want it and you can afford it... If you're comfortable with the purchase... call the agent.

Rosalinda, Yes!  And so many people miss out on what they really want.  I know it's a little shaky right now, but if they would only make an offer, you just never know what a seller might say.  How will they know if they don't offer??
