Please don't disparage those that like to rummage through other people's underwear drawers. We all have our little fetishes. :floor:

It's perfectly ok when it's a distress sale. This will tell someone how low they go on their offers especially if there's a thong involved. :lol:

Very true! A friend is off the plant-watering/house-care list after I came home to find a note in my lingerie drawer saying "guess which pair I tried on"! :yikes: He was kidding..............I hope!

I don't think someone commenting on the original purchase cost vs. the current asking price and the subsequent profit is akin to rooting through someone's underwear drawer - especially when you have a link to the PA site in your MLS listing!
 
folks, the market atmosphere is rapidly changing....
Seller cost basis has always been relevent to smart shoppers...
and with the changing market, it is essential for survival. (unless you
are a Chevron executive!) Skillful negotiators are those who will be
standing when the dust settles! I notice the word "vulture" was used
in one of the previous emails...
Hey, didn't you see the Jungle Book! Vultures are "good folks"!
"birds of a feather flock together".....and rise above the circumstances!
Fish, I appreciate your classic approach!
Excellent information.
Remember: "Diligence leads to victory".......(the new catch phrase in
the real estate business!).....
 
A lowball offer doesn't make you a vulture - no law says that they have to accept it!

Only in the land of crazy real estate are people "so insulted by your lowball offer (for 1.5 to 2x what they paid for it a few years ago) that they won't dignify it with a response. :roll:

I have some quality phrases to describe someone crying poverty and hardship to justify wanting to sell unimproved vacant land for 5-20x their purchase price a couple years ago ............;-)
 
Successful "investors," on the other hand, take time to research the fundamentals and gather information on corporate balance sheets, CEOs, etc, before plunking their money down. They are in it for the long haul and are well aware of the market's ebbs and flows. They also have the patience to wait for the market to come to them instead of furiously running after it with the crowd and have the wherewithal to occasionally take profits along the way.

I wish life was that way. I bought a apartment building in 1985 with great research. The tax increase of 1986 removed tax benefits for investment property. The property was underwater in months.

I guess if you want a 5% return you buy a gov't security. But if you want bigger returns, no matter how much you research, you are still gambling. Hence our current market and the situation that most of us are in.

Regardless of the 'dry powder' that someone has, this is a tough market that many people wouldn't do again if they knew the current situation -well researched or speculator.
