How Can a Small Househack Investor Beat out a Cash Buyer?

[Christopher Murphy]

Hi All,

I am currently sending in offers for my first house hack. A condo in my area came up at a great price and location. Listing agent said there are cash buyers with offers well over list price. I am a preapproved buyer (5% conventional) with no contingencies, can close ASAP. I want to know how influential of a factor that is for sellers and if there is anything else I can provide to compete with cash buyers that might be in at a higher price point than me. Any recommendations are very much welcome. Showing and offer deadline is tonight!

Thank you!
