One of my sellers had one of these dropped off the other day. It was a photocopy of a hand written note much like this. They will be making good use of it in their fireplace.

I got 2 of these in my mailbox.. clearly they really want my house for a fraction of its worth lol 🙈
mk.realtor
@lornawillisygkhomes wow, it would be straight up irresponsible for a seller to sell this way. The open market is their best bet almost always!
lornawillisygkhomes
@mk.realtor I actually went to one of their seminars to learn about the model - takes advantage of people on all sides.

Woops 17.4% haha
mcouatdoug
Wow 174%. That's crazy. Prediction on when the market softens?
lornawillisygkhomes
@mcouatdoug with low inventory and low interest rates, it’s expected to stay strong through 2021. The unknown is if there will be a change in demand “after Covid”

Are you in the process of searching for your next home, but don’t know how to start? Here are the top 3 tips on how to properly house hunt:
1️⃣ Get pre-approved for a mortgage. While this may seem “too early” it’s actually essential if you want to speed up the transaction process. Sellers will see that you are a trusted buyer, be more willing to negotiate, and you can get the keys to your dream home quicker!
2️⃣ Make a list of your non-negotiable must-haves. This will help you focus your search and negotiate because you know exactly what you’re looking for.
3️⃣ Start online. Nowadays, people are selling more and more online. Doing preliminary research online will help you save time.
