As a REALTOR(R) working in this area, you need to listen to your agent. I have a buyer who made offers on 16 homes before she got her offer accepted, because other buyers were offering more money than she was.
There is a lot of competition for those homes that are in good condition and priced well. We are noticing that a lot of the bank repo homes are coming on the market priced well under market value, and letting the buyer determine the value. Your agent should be running the comparable values on every home that interests you, and from that you can decide how much you want to offer on that home.
Good luck, and wishing you success in your search!
You are right to expect better service than that. You have the right to have any agent you like represent you on the purchase of your new home. I'm guessing from your story, that you don't have a written agreement with her to only work with her.
What is the address? Maybe the house was taken off the market until the vandalism is fixed. Call me, I'll check it out for you, and oh yeah, I'll even call you back if I miss you :)
Thanks!
You are discovering what many of us already know...the buyers are out there and they are buying homes! As a REALTOR(R) working in Corona and Riverside, I see what you are seeing. Homes that are priced well, in good condition and location, and offered at good terms are receiving multiple offers. Usually they are getting several offers the first day the house goes up for sale.
To improve your chances, get pre approved for a home loan if you have not done that already. Make sure you have a good agent helping you, one who will check several times a day for new listings, alert you to them, and will be able to show you the homes ASAP. And then when you write your offer, write the best offer you can. Your agent can coach you on that part, depending on what financing and assistance you need.
You are smart to be shopping now, and good luck to you!
So much depends on the home you are interested in. Is it already for sale? Is it a short sale or a regular sale? If it is a short sale, has the price been approved by the bank that holds the loan? A great REALTOR(R) will help you get the answers, and also will help you write the best possible bid that will help you get the home of your dreams. Also a great REALTOR(R) will help you make sure you are getting a great deal on your new home.
When you are ready to interview agents, feel free to call me. I'd love to interview for the job :)
