However, are all these deals really closing 100% cash from the buyer’s pockets? No, not really. What do I mean? Well, the buyer makes a cash offer with no financing contingency meaning that there isn’t a lender involved which also means there isn’t an appraisal contingency. The seller feels like this would be a guaranteed closing rather than running the risk of the lender at the end pulling the plug on […]

Over my years of experience, I have found that Broker’s Opens are most effective when a house has not been listed on the market in many […]
