For the ignorant dummy who responded do not judge me wether or not why or why not if I can reach out to these home owners investors who are struggling with elderly tenants Dont put words in my mouth if you are capable in that small brain of yours I will reiterate once more Now put your ears on ok never did I say investors should not profit or perform accordingly Now about greed in the real estate community of investing it does exist take your head out of the sand I will repeat myself Because I do not cater to ignorant people such as you seem to be I have met good people who are investors I have met greedy selfish people who are investors as well So don't assume as you have about my capabilities  Heres my question why haven't you reached out to provide solutions All you do it seems is point that proverbial finger at others and their opinions suggestions I hope you don't respond I don't communicate well with ignorance To the one who claims seniors are not on fixed incomes do your Research It is because Grandma Grandpa out seniors that our economies have increased and flourished They have worked many years to provide for their families etc They have contributed to social welfare for their years of service our economies in the United States and abroad have become economies of greed and dictatorship oh yes and Greed unending the haves the have nots are definitely with or without The weakness and destruction continue and will continue with corrupt governments vying for total control real estate laws we as investors cannot control monetary laws we cannot control If you doubt my theory of fact read about history and their fiat monetary laws and extinction of their currencies The cure to this economy all economies is to enact the gold standard laws for this will be the salvation of monetary law and strengthen our economical systems If the laws which govern us as investors will change Home prices Food fuel our retirement rental increase profit etc Would subside to affordability inflation would cease for all people would thrive survive in a new stronger economy/world We live in a world of imperfection we are investors We create we provide we profit but we do go against the social conventional grain We use our minds our Godly intuition to build to add to one anothers lives Real estate investing is a slow way to wealth it can be scary it has many challenges it will be a formidable adversary but it will reward you unending for you and yours Where there is a will there definitely is a way I wish you all investors creators problem solvers Gods best Words ended D My words are ended D

Some things will have to loosen up if the area wants the market to strengthen.

If the property needs extensive rehab, the low ball offer can be justified by submitting an estimate of the rehab along with the offer.If the property has been on the market for a significant amount of time, there is an opportunity to come in with a lowball offer that has a chance of getting accepted.In terms of strengthening your offer, you can try increasing your Earnest Money deposit to let the Seller know you are serious and willing to put up the money to prove it.You could also make your Earnest Money non-refundable after the inspection period.

Everybody will wonder what horrible thing the buyer found that made him walk away.Consider putting a larger down payment down to strengthen your offer - especially if you're in a competitive seller's market.You should start looking for a good lender - and not all handle USDA, so be sure to ask.Good luck!
