Berta,
I would encourage you to have your Realtor place multiple offers on REO's. I would not get attached to just one house or get emotional over one offer. I advise my client's that in all likelihood many of the offers that I will be placing will receive multiple offers, especially if the home is in turnkey condition. Many of these REO listing agents have multiple bank owned properties, some have over 100 properties under their license and it's very easy for some of these agents to lose track of offers. Your agent must also be persistent but please be patient, sometimes these things take time. - Mon Sep 8, 2008
