Every agent represent his/her client and do what's in the clients best interest.If another offer was coming, there is high chance that the seller has seen your offer but doesn't want to answer even with risk of your withdrawal I submitted a full price offer with financing and the listing agent told me on the phone she's out of town celebrating her birthday ;)I knew right away that another offer is coming.Sure enough, on Monday I've got request of "highest and best".Leveraging by my offer, she sold her listing to another agents buyer for cash and higher than asking price.If the agent knew that price is to sell, she doesn't have to accept your offer right away.....it's in her client best interest to wait - she knows what kind of activity there is on the listing....if there were like 10-12 showings in the first day, no way she'd advice her client to accept the first offer - she knows the listing will be sold higher than asking price.Comissions has nothing to do with that - it's literally few dollars for the difference in price.

@John JonesAre you looking to be an active investor (aware you creating a job for yourself) or a passive investor?

Glowing report from current landlord, all income verified, no criminality, bad credit but mostly because there isn't enough history.TransUnion's only real flag (besides the credit) is that SSN may be invalid, and I'm not sure how to take it.

To me, their only use is a good quick look at solds and actives in your area for quick searches and some data on those houses (that is not guaranteed to be accurate, especially bed bath counts).

I have been interested and studying real estate for about 2 years now and decided now is the time to get in the mix and start actively looking for deals.

We have hired a realtor for the listing however I am not sure how much marketing he is doing since there is no activity on the listing.
