Usually they get away with it but homepath.com is now making all offers be submitted through their website.

After talking to our lender about a loan mod they've requested that we submit a package covering what's going on, how we want the loan to be modified, and our proposed exit strategy.

The listing agent is required to submit your offer to the seller, unless the seller has instructed the listing agent not to submit offers less than the $285K (which is unlikely).There's a reasonable chance you won't get the property for $255K if it's currently listed for $290K, but it can't hurt to try.

They were super easy, took a couple of weeks to get the money after I submitted the paperwork (1-2 pages?).

But, a majority of the time it takes a price decrease, we submit the same low offer and then they accept it.

Are you talking about sales tax or property taxes that have been submitted?

I thought probate court was a formality because all contingencies must be removed prior to submitting for court approval.

I wanted to offer 40% of ARV, and unfortunately I didn't even get to submit my offer because I was having some technical difficulties.

I submitted my offer, as I usually do, but this time the bank said they would only sell these three properties to me via a "Quit Claim Deed".The problem was, almost all title insurance companies will not get involved with title work and not issue title insurance, if a "Quit Claim Deed" is used to transfer title!

You'll need to get pre-approved with the bank, and the bank will then issue a pre-approval letter to submit with your purchase offer (assuming it's an REO or short sale).3) Same as the previous step, but using a hard money lender, which will charge you something around 5 points up front and 12% interest.
