Winning Bidder at Hubzu, but reserve not met---> Advise??
I was the highest bidder at an auction, however the reserve was not met. Right away I received the offer below:
Even though your bid didn't meet the seller's reserve price, the seller is still offering you an exclusive chance to purchase the property. The seller is proposing a price for which they'd be willing to sell the property to you. The details of this proposal are below:
Bid Price ($) :54,000.00
Technology Fee ($):299.00
Buyer's Premium($):2,430.00
Purchase Price ($):56,729.00
The bid started at $40K, and I am reading above their reserve price was $54K. My bid was $48K.
Based on this information (and not in how much the property is worth or ARV calculations) What strategy would you recommend to get my offer accepted closest to my original $48K (plus fees will be around $50k)??
