Cristian Petrescu Couple of questions

Secondly, concerning step 4, I learned that contracts are construed against the drafter, meaning that whoever drafts the contract is liable and responsible for anything misleading or fishy or sketchy on itI find this to be super smart and logical - just wanted to see if people share the same thoughts or have any comments on this since I don't really see any added risk to doing it this way Lastly, concerning number 5, the way this was presented is that having your buyer sign the contract first almost guarantees the deal going through since the buyer is showing commitment and all that - and also, apparently in the real world there's some unwritten thing where when you call back the agent in step 4 and say that you have a deal and to start the closing process, that realtor is now on notice and has officially agreed to be committed to you is this all true and works?

Josh F. Hawaii: One big bubble?

What these markets all have in common is that they are highly desirable with blue chip status, have almost no new land (except infill/replacement development), and have a global client base.SF has had an annualized growth rate of about 4.5% over the last 30 years or so; rest of the country I believe 1.5-2%, many areas even less.
