I've literrally told the last one, "I have $xxx amount for use in purchase and rehab and am hungry to buy.

Hi, if you must play the highest and best game, here's what I say; $1,000.00 over the highest offer received up to $XXX,XXX.00, on or before xxst of August, 2010, with such offer being from a qualified buyer.

The form states something along the lines of "The property is in a multiple offer situation , highest and best bids by XXX".Hopefully you'll have the parties compete against eachother and get even more out of it.

If you can do that for me, do we have a deal at $XXX,XXX?

As an agent, I prefer to take the approach of creating the buzz with other agents--for instance an email "I've got a totally renovated XXX XXX coming on the market at it's going to be priced at $XX Do you have anyone looking for something like this?

Even if an agent tells them, you should hold out for $XXX, people can get sick of the property and the process and just take an offer because it's in front of them and seems like the best way out.

Draw up offer to purchase for $335k to be executed in xxx months. 2.

Then I talked to 3 neighbors, if they weren't home, I left a note saying something like: "I'd like to purchase the vacant house at xxx st.

Is there any preferred method of doing that or do we have that written up in the offer for a second for $xxx over 12 months at x% interest.

Or should there be a clause which states let's say "if the seller decides to cancel the deal or not to sell on the agreed price he must pay $XXX to me".
