If there isn't much competition in your area or if you are the only investor the seller is calling then that might be fine, but in a market with stiff competition you will have to bring a strong offer.

This  gives the under the radar bunch a competitive advantage in a market that almost completely driven by price.Rehabbers on the other hand are trying to keep costs as low as possible because it is already hard finding properties at the price point were you can make any money when adding in Realtor and closing fees which generally add 8-10percent to the equation.Would love to here others opinions on the topic.Thanks and have a great day.
