Mark Twain said, "Supposing is good, but finding out is better!" 1 Buyer's Agents: Read all of the MLS descriptions, including extended comments/agent comments.  Many times the listing agent will actually state exactly what it will take for the seller to consider an offer.  If not, call the agent and find out what the seller's priorities are (not just the price). REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, alltheleads.com/harris 2 Notice if there are any details listed, such as 'not FHA approved' or 'seller financing may be available', 'seller to contribute up to $5,000 toward buyer's closing costs', 'as-is only', 'contingent on seller finding suitable housing', etc. 3 Run the history, or 'archive' as some MLSs call it, of the property.  Also, search Zillow, Google, and even YouTube to see if it may have been a For Sale By Owner prior to being listed.  This search should take you 5 minutes or less but could mean the difference between winning or losing.  Ready to become an EXPIRED Listing Agent?

Is this a fresh listing, or has it been on or off the market previously? Has the price been raised or lowered? Has it been pending before and gone back on the market? What caused that? Inspection or appraisal issues? It's okay to call the listing agent and find out! 5 What are the comparable sales for this property?  The most recent sales and pending.  How many days on the market did those homes take to sell?  What is the list-to-sell price ratio?  Are these numbers going up or down? Proper Previous Planning Prevents Pitifully Poor Performance.  The more you know about the house and the seller, the better offer you can put together.  Remember, your buyer wants to BUY the house, not just write an offer!
