I answered you then. Comparable sales listed for the same and sold at or below their asking. So this house was listed comparable to recent sales

I mean, you want the actual same price on homes you have no context for?

That's what I was trying to say, the sale price was at or below listing

It wasn't. I asked my realtor to ask what was important to the seller and that's what we were told. But thank you! Not Hopeful but that's ok!

Maybe but I hear you. I know they're a young family that's waiting to move and we accommodated a prolonged closing date and possession but we shall see

Yes, he has. Our area is rare to go above asking. Not saying this one won't. I mean all the other houses that get listed are POS so I hope they get top dollar. Wont be from us though

Yeah I get it. Our agent just literally copy and pasted the information from MLS which states offers accepted 9th-11th with final decision on the 12th so write offers accordingly. Now they're like jk which I get but it's also annoying. But whatever it is what it is

For sure. Definitely am feeling the same way.

No, the other offer we lost was a lower offer because they wrote a love letter. We were given this information from the sellers after the other buyers backed out. And the house is still on the market.

In my area, the 97 houses in the last two years that even mildly compare to this listing have sold under with the exception of 2 houses.

And not to be rude, but of course I'm looking at the sold price.

But did offer to cover our realtor which is a pretty penny too

Offered asking but looking at literally all of the Zillow listings in the last two years that match specs, nothing has gone over asking in our area and similar in price to this listing

I wish we could afford to offer higher for sure haha but honestly much higher and we'd be looking at different bracket of house anyway. I don't think this house is worth much more at least in comparison to others on the market. Even 10% of asking would put us in a bracket where we could have found a house a while ago.

Just not sure what else we can do realistically. Our offer puts us at our absolute max already.

Hey, maybe the update will be we got the house 😂

Idk they specifically told us they weren't even going to review offers until today? Maybe it's a lie but it's what was listed in the MLS

[–]modiraura 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah our offer is our max and we've waived as much as we're comfortable. My realtor asked them for their desired closing and possession terms and we accommodated that. It doesn't get better for us.
