All of my customers knew about the house too and they were all bidding in the same range I was.If $61,000 is the most you'd be willing to pay for the house, offer $61k.

@Scott Costello really active here on Bigger Pockets had set up his own site w/ a professional web developer who was great... but wasn't stellar at setting up a site that performs well... and it got ranked well and got some leads... but then he setup a Carrot site and gets 5x more leads through his Carrot site vs. his custom site.

I have 15 years of remodel and custom home building experience.
