Value of Submitting Offer Prior to Walk-through

[Jonathan Bolano]

Hey everyone,

@Brandon Turner has spoken numerous times regarding submitting offers prior to walking through properties and making the offer contingent on such. I am wondering if someone here could shed some extra insight from your experience to help me find the value in that strategy. I am a Realtor in Rhode Island and can't see where a Seller would entertain this type of offer. 

Thank you in advance for all your help as you all comment.
