Date: April 26th, 2018 10:59 PM Author: submissive lay sex offender This is the second round. First round came in with 4+ offers. Sellers agent wont disclose any more than that. For what it's worth, our offer is still below zillow zestimate and our agent thinks it will easily appraise at offer price. They listed low.

|
Date: April 26th, 2018 11:54 PM Author: submissive lay sex offender No. Our previous offer fell through because everyone agreed the home would not appraise for the agreed upon price. We offered a guaranteed 10K above appraisal (but not more) and the sellers wouldn't take it.
Our realtor told us to back out and that we were wasting time and money on that deal. So I trust her, she doesn't just push for a deal when it's a bad investment. |

|
Date: April 27th, 2018 9:18 AM Author: submissive lay sex offender I think, i HOPE this is what happened. I dont feel great about the price but i also get the point that 10k here or there doesn't matter THAT much over 30 years when the home is a good fit. I guess.
Still sucks to feel like we are not getting a great value. Our current place was a solid, cant lose investment. This one is not. But it is a really good house. |

|
Date: April 26th, 2018 11:09 PM Author: doobsian bateful theatre No, you can't generalize.
We got really lucky. At the open house, we hit it off with an agent from the listing agent's real estate company. We had been dissatisfied with our agent for some time, and this guy was great, so we asked if he'd represent us. A few days later, after talking about some of the issues the house had (but still loving the property overall), we made a lowball offer of $845k (asking price was $870k). The first round there were four other offers, with ours the lowest. However, since we had the connection, us and two others made it into the second round.
At this point we were informed that both other offers were above asking, with the highest at $880k and 30% down. We decided to match the $880k, offer 20% down, and the listing agent and our realtor were able to work something out where we would still get our agreed-upon $5k credit towards closing.
So now we're in escrow. The backyard will require a lot of work so we asked for $20k in additional credits, a request I fully expect to be denied. However we're prepared to take the house anyway. There are literally a handful of other houses up for sale in this area, and we had already lost out on a few others. |

I'm already preparing myself for the inevitability that the house I end up buying will probably be disappointing, smaller than I want, etc. and will probably still be over 750k |
|
Date: April 27th, 2018 12:05 AM Author: submissive lay sex offender Welcome to the northeast, bro. But look on the bright side, at least we're not in cali.
This house isnt that small but the main floor is small. It has a great basement apartment with separate entrance and an amazing attic master bedroom with en suite. But the main floor is small. Small living room, small dining room, small kitchen with an awkward layout that will be hard to fix. It is cute though. |
|
Date: April 27th, 2018 12:06 AM Author: aqua razzle-dazzle elastic band garrison I'll be buying in CA. fma
Does it look nice from the street? That's an important factor |
|
Date: April 27th, 2018 12:12 AM Author: submissive lay sex offender Honestly it looks SUPER nice from the street and has mad curb appeal, at least in my opinion. It is also truly turn key. Like I may not love the kitchen layout but it's all clean and new and in good condition.
It has a lot of really good things going for it. I am not sure we will we will get the house, even with ~10% over asking.
Dont buy in cali. It will crash. Sorry but those are the facts. May crash here too but not as much. |

Date: April 26th, 2018 11:43 PM Author: submissive lay sex offender It's not even that great of a house. Like it's cute but it's not exactly a beauty. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3961122&forum_id=2#35929104) |

Date: April 27th, 2018 12:15 AM Author: submissive lay sex offender I personally like the location and although it's not big, the layout works really well for us. I feel like this has everything we need and that's all I want to pay for. In that way it is actually a very good fit. And it IS a nice house that has a lot of things I like.

Date: May 3rd, 2018 6:34 PM Author: poppy heaven mediation Are you concerned you are buying right before a crash?
We're going to look at a condo priced at $280K.
The seller bought in Feb 2009 at $120K. The original asking price, right before the crash, was $290K, or $10K more than is being asked now.
After the crash you can see the offer prices declining all the way down to $120K where they bought at.
So now I'm looking at all this thinking these sellers know what they are doing. They bought at rock bottom and they're probably saying, "We have to get out now."
I don't want to buy right before the crash which is what I'm afraid is happening. |
|
Date: May 3rd, 2018 9:34 PM Author: submissive lay sex offender So I am going to be brutally honest here: I absolutely believe we are buying near peak market. There may be another 6 months to a year left until it peaks but I would say it's near the top now and will go down 10-20%.
The only thing that makes this acceptable is that we are selling as well as buying and the cost of the homes are similar. That plus it just feels like the time is right for us personally. From an investment perspective unless you are in a rush, I would wait. |
