Hi All,

I put in an offer on a duplex. The response from the seller's agent came in as a text at 5:29 pm last night when the offer was set to expire at 5:30. The seller counter offered, and I counter-counter offered yesterday evening. The agent said she would tell them my counter.

What is a usual amount of time I should expect before receiving an answer?
How long is the offer considered still in effect?

Thanks!

Hi,

I have a not-completely-hypothetical example for advice.

Would you rather purchase a single family at $50k which will need $20k of repair to rent at 900/month, or a converted house that is currently in ok shape, with 2 1-bedroom apartments that rent at ~$430 for $70k? What variables do you consider with your answer?

Thanks for your input!

Hi! I live in Augusta. Congrats, and I agree about our market. I own a home, and I'd be happy to talk about sharing good repair people. amanda.the.reader at gmail.
