[quote=Anonymous]Arlington agent here. Remember its not just the price in competitive properties. I've had sellers who have taken an offer for a smaller amount of money because the winning offer was not contingent on an appraisal or a home inspection. If the seller is waiting several days for offers, you can ask to have a home inspection done before you submit your offer. I always tell sellers to allow the home inspection as it is reassuring to buyers to understand what they may have to forego. The appraisal is hard to give up, but if you want to be in a good house in a good area and have lost several bidding wars, you have to clench your gut and proceed. Incidentally, real estate agents do not have the power to control markets as many of you believe. If we did, we would have many more houses on the market so that buyers did not have to go to the lengths I've described to buy a good house.[/quote]
