PRICING:
Buying wholesale is what everyone wants but the truth is, very few sellers are desperate.
Listen to the advice your realtor has to offer. He/she can be a wealth of knowledge. After all, it is the realtors that are out in the real estate marketplace every day.
Some buyers think that the only way to barter to a fair price is to start very low. Most sellers have toiled countless hours on their homes and are gravely insulted that you think so little of it that you would dare to present to them a “low-ball”. Your reward will be a high counter offer or in the worst-case scenario, no counter at all.
If the property you are bidding on is obviously overpriced, perhaps you should look elsewhere and spare yourself the disappointment or wait until the owner reduces his price to reflect market value.
