Talking directly to sellers
I recently heard one of Ben Leybovich's podcasts where he said he must be able to talk with the seller in any deal he is considering. I agree it's a great idea if you are good with people and negotiating.
My idea was to add some type of language in the offer that states if the offer is rejected or countered, I must have the right to meet with the seller directly. Of course they can decline my request, but it seems like a good idea to help get deals closed.
What are your thought BP land?
Thanks in advance!
