It appears that many people on this post use the fear monger tactics and attack some educational institutue.

Can this be used as a negotiation tactic on my part (a lower price offered, partially resulting from higher property taxes)?

There are different tactics you can use.

Yes, this meduim is key for us all.Especially when it comes to the Real Estate Business.. we all need to save our time and reduce the stress and the fact that we need to travel from one place to an other..I succeed with my "buy/sell cheap lands" using proven to work Internet tactics..

If all the newbies are scared away by these tactics, perhaps no one will challenge his business.

I also would/have used the tactic to expedite matters in a owner occupied foreclosure situation.

Dave,I like the "Guerilla" tactics.

I have a contract with a seller, the house may need more repairs than originally thought.Asking price was 160FMV in as-is condition 170-180ARV 220-240My price 123Original estimated repairs 20-25New estimates 30-35kRoof and asbestos siding may need work, and I was unaware of siding being asbestosWhat are some tactics I can use to get the price down?

I also would like to take advantage of short term opportunities that may present themselves but not sure yet which tactic to use.

Credit card companies are notorious for using slimey selling tactics.
