For example, if the house is a foreclosure and the seller is a bank, a cash offer may get you up to a 5-10% discount, in my experience.If the seller is a private seller, it's really going to depend on how desperate the seller is to get rid of the property and how much money he "needs" to make on the deal.For example, when I'm selling my properties, I like to get cash offers because it means less risk that the transaction won't close and it generally means a faster close, both of which are important enough to me that I'm willing to give a discount of up to 10% (depending on my profit margin for that particular property).Now, that said, some sellers are trying to get every penny out of their property, and the benefits of a cash deal (less risk, faster close) isn't worth trading any profit.
