How To Handle Multiple Offers With Old Fitzgerald

from Bourbon Real Estate Hosted by Bourbon Real Estate

What happens when you combine a bottle of Old Fitzgerald 7 Year Bottled-in-Bond with three real estate agents talking about the chaos of today’s housing market? You get another episode of Bourbon Real Estate. AJ, Ben and Tim crack open Old Fitzgerald 7 Year and talk bourbon, flavor, bottled-in-bond whiskey, and some seriously wild bourbon history — including Prohibition-era prescriptions, the legendary Old Fitzgerald story, and the infamous Heaven Hill distillery fire that created a literal river of burning bourbon. Then we switch gears to one of the biggest challenges facing today's home buyers: multiple-offer situations. Why are buyers still competing against multiple offers? How does low inventory affect prices? Does putting 20% down actually make your offer stronger? What happens when the appraisal comes in below the purchase price? And what exactly is an appraisal gap waiver? We also break down: How buyers can make their offers more attractive without simply throwing more money at a house Cash vs. financed offers Earnest money and financing strength Flexible closing dates and post-closing possession FHA, VA and conventional financing “As-is” offers and home inspections Why buyers sometimes win the house… and then realize they don't actually want it Why the best offer isn't always just the highest dollar amount How sellers and their agents evaluate competing offers Why having a good real estate agent matters when the market gets competitive And of course, we finish by deciding whether Old Fitzgerald 7 Year is worth the roughly $60 price tag. It's bourbon, real estate, questionable financial decisions and a few Kentucky hugs along the way. Pour yourself a glass and join AJ, Ben and Tim for another episode of Bourbon Real Estate. #BourbonRealEstate #RealEstate #Bourbon #OldFitzgerald #HomeBuying #RealEstateInvesting #MultipleOffers #HomeBuyers #ChicagoRealEstate #ChicagolandRealEstate #KentuckyBourbon
