How to make an offer for a $850K-$950K competitive

Anonymous
I just bought a house, and I'm certain that the seller did not see my credit rating before accepting my offer.

When looking at equal offers, the RA will advise to go with the one with the best credit rating/financing. If you appear to be "reaching" the seller might pass you by. The seller really wants the deal to close -- the last thing they want is to take the home off the market and then have the financing fall through. They have lost time, qualified buyers, and the "reputation" of their home is impugned (what if the financing "fell through" b/c there is a problem with the house? is a question the next buyer will ask?)
