Some investors make me laugh

[Justen Ashcraft]

My wife and I just listed the last of our sfr’s in Gwinnett County. It’s in a very up and coming neighborhood with a new hospital less than a mile away etc. we listed it below the “Zillow” estated 176k for 169,900. We’ve had plenty of interest, but haven’t accepted anything as of now. My real estate agent says you have an offer at 155 and they want this and that and this... “cash buyer”. I told him not even to respond with this lowball crap. We’ve had full price offers already, but will wait until tomorrow mornings showing to ask for highest and best. I’m not a flipper, but is this how it goes with investors looking to buy an investment property? I guess people will just throw junk out there hoping it will stick. Ye, I do understand that this is what most of us do, lowball, but that’s an embarrassing offer even though the percentage isn’t that far off.
