[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting thread. I am currently a seller of a condo in a very hot neighborhood. Listed on Friday, offers started coming in on saturday. My realtor handled all of this. At one point, we thought we might just try to sell it ourselves and hire a lawyer to handle the closing. But its a lot more complicate than that (and my husband is a lawyer too). Here is the bottom line, its a sellers market. the seller has all the leverage. I wouldn't want my realtor wasting his time on some random "legal eagle" trying to buy without an agent. Not when I have multiple offers 25k over asking 24 hours after listing. And Im still not accpeting them because I want to have the open house and get a bidding war going. Yes its sucks balls to be a buyer now. but its also stupid to do it without an agent. I rely on my agent and his relationship with other agents on pre open house showings and knowing whether someone is legit. And by legit, ready to make an offer that day with 25k in earnest money. YOu arent coming across as serious. And if you called me to complain about my agent I would tell you to eff off cause Im busy reviewing other offers. Good luck to you. Welcome to a sellers market.[/quote] this. summarize very well what others have been trying to say. I would not be surprised if OP found out the hard way, and the house he wanted to look at is already under contract. [/quote]
