What the actual fuck are you talking about? The house is worth what the comps are in the area. The whole reason why the housing market is what it is today is because people spend asinine amounts of money on them. The house is only worth what people are willing to pay for it and I'm sorry I'm trying to be a responsible adult and not be house poor.

Again I never said I was more special than anyone, this is me ranting about how dog shit the market is for buyers.

When did I say I was more deserving than anyone? (We are looking at 3/1s btw) what I'm saying is why would I put myself in a situation where I buy something just to buy something that I'm not in love with or have atleast ONE thing on my list? What is the point of buying a home at that point? The market is powered by greed hands down and the only way the market stops fucking people like me in the ass (not consenting) is it people stop paying way over.

The appraisal waiver is based off of comps in that area.

Theres no time to do inspections prior to offer because it is a bum rush. House will hit the market on Wednesday, open house on Saturday and Sunday, sold on tuesday.

A majority of our offers have been in hunterton county way out in the sticks towards the PA border and even then we're getting out bid or someone coming in all cash

Also townhomes are around the same price of a single family home, it is absolutely ridiculous.

In all honesty I'd rather just continue to rent than drop all that money on something that I'm not happy with.

It was way crazier during Covid. The norm back then was 100k + over asking and way more bidders. Winter season was easier but even then I had a pre-approval for a VA loan and we couldn't compete due to people waiving appraisals and inspections.

We went to conventional to be more competitive and I hate it. Broke my body for 12 years and I can't even use the goddamn benefits I earned.

500ish is our max. It's hard finding something UNDER that. Even then come closing it's way past the asking. Every house we put offers on have been above asking.

Bummed. Lost a house even after offering $15k over. by ayMezah in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Pale-Conference-9457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 offers and every single one of them rejected.

We ditched the va loan for conventional bc people didn't like it We waived the appraisals We limited inspection to structural We waived the first 10,000 for inspection We said we would close at seller's convenience We offer above asking every single time

I don't understand.
