*Lowballing* MLS Offers

Ill first start by saying it isn't really lowballing if that's where your numbers take you but...

To those investors that make offers off the MLS. When you're numbers are a decent amount below asking price and you make an offer do you explain how you arrived at the offer number or do you just send an offer with no explanation. What has worked best for you when sending the offer other then it being a numbers game. Have you noticed increase success with different methods?

I got my real estate license so I can send offers whenever without having to bother anyone and save on commission when listing.

Obviously people will have a little shock when you come in a decent amount off asking but do you try to justify it to them and maybe plant a seed or just send send send til one pans out?
