I was helping a friend out and bought a house, SFH, for them to rent and then the ball started rolling.

Many, even most (but not all) realtors are not going to take kindly to low-ball offers from individuals that are bring buyers to pay more for a property and cut them out of a greater commission.Third, buyers can get access to MLS listings (including REO) though other agents and online sources.

You want one that will do tons of showings and put in lots of offers whenever you need them put in - even if the offers are low ball offers.

The more mud you throw on the wall eventually some will stick".The more offers you submit (we would always low ball) the more chances you have of buying at a discount.

That's the realm of crystal balls.

I always put ball valves on the water meter when I buy a house, so turning the water off takes 2 seconds.

Duncan I will be spending my money to do this because most people will just talk about it but don't have the balls to put it in motion.

Thank you again and if you don't mind in the future when I get this ball rolling, could I reach out to you?

What a goof-ball state.And 475.42 states that the penalty for violating the law (say, if you did buy your own property) is 'a misdemeanor of the second degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083'.http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?

They have more balls I guess.Good point about the price not being officially approved but a prior bank counter.
