How do you bounce back from getting outbid?
First time home buyer, I could only afford 5% down and some smuck came in and puts down 25%. Is there any strategy when cash is low?

I don't see the problem, unless you're getting emotionally attached to the property or making that deal. Then the problem isn't that you didn't get the deal. The problem is you getting emotional about it.
