It's ironic that this program was set up to reduce investors competing. It does the exact opposite!

All the investors line up their offers and then on day 15~~viola!! Competition galore!

This is how I got both of my rentals. Had the offers written, submitted on day 15. Negoiated that day...done.

If you really want the house, get your offer submitted.

Welcome Marlena!

Lots of good advice here! As someone once suggested to me, read around BP; the forums, the articles, etc.

You'll get a ton of good info. Good luck!!

In NY, its a "buyer beware state." Which means, everyone is out to screw the buyers(sellers, agents, etc.). We have additional paperwork that everyone has to sign at "first substantive contact".

As an agent, you will most likely have buyers that fit your listing or vice versa. Here, we have to tread very lightly. In other words, CYA and make sure all paperwork regarding dual agency is explained and signed!! :D

It can be tricky. All parties have to agree to dual agency here.

I don't have any advice either or should I say, my advice wouldn't mount to a hill of beans! But I agree with the others, don't beat yourself up over the $800. Demand your money back and go on!

This thread alone, has probably educated more people than you know! I'm impressed by your straight-forward questions and scenerio.

I just wish I had contacts in that area to help you. :cry:

I am equally impressed with the responses from the seasoned BP'ers. You really can learn a lot here! :D

As the others have said, it depends on the state you live in. I'm inclined to say the answer is going to be No.

Part of a realtors dues goes to pay for the system that runs the mls in their area. If non-licensed "assistants" can have access, than what's the benefit for the realtors that pay those dues?

Thanks Jeff. Appreciate the help!

You might to check this out...Bryan Hancock invited BP'ers on another thread.

(For some reason, I can't get this copy/paste/link stuff down on BP.) :oops:

Hey Josh...trying to change my profile and add NY to my markets. The way it looks now, people would think I'm licensed in AZ but I'm not. Don't want to mislead anyone!!!!!

How do I fix it? Thanks.

Newbie question: TS venue?? What is it?

Thanks.

Good point Michael...but some sellers don't want to see low ball offers. But that's usually in a traditional seller/buyer transcaction. I, personally, would want to see everything!
