Buyers remorse deals left undone.

OK so maybe it is just a good lessoned learned.  At least that is the way I use a lost deal to educate a buyer.  Yes, there are so many deals out there but, in my area in Greensboro, North Carolina at least there are alot of buyers out there in the 100K to 180K range. The investors are on the prowl to under 100K.  So when one of my buyers likes a property but continues to look and then someone else comes along and buys that home.  Now begins the lesson.  Once we see the home and they express interest the teaching begins.  OK so you like the home, now what is the reason you do not want to make an offer.  Well, you have the well something better may come along, or the just not quite ready to commit.  So in a few weeks when it goes under contract you have the why didn't I buy that home?!?!?   So the lesson or moral to the story is OK you like the home it has all your needs and even some of your wants.  It is in the price range so if you are not ready to make an offer then are you ready to lose this one?  If you are not ready to walk away and not look back then we need to talk.  The clients listen to the media and don't think there are other buyers just like them looking at the same homes.  Well someone else already learned their lesson so when they run across your house they are ready to BUY! So don't be surprised if the list of favorites you have starts to dwindle as other buyers buy the homes that you like.  You thought you would just have your pick didn't you!
