People buy or with agents that they trust and/or like.

I'm still curious about people working together with the next highest bidder (presumably one with discount) winning.I appreciate your insight, I've read several of your posts and bookmarked your site in my research on investing here in Detroit!

My hope is that the clientele we bring in won't completely trash the place but I realize that is just wishful thinking and that people, regardless of income/ what they are willing to pay, can behave like animals (I was in the auto industry before becoming an attorney and the things I saw walking trades will forever haunt me). 

Great real estate investing community here in Austin - lots of good people, meetups etc
