I just want to say that this happens quite often. The buyer wants to make an offer but the Realtors says well they will offend the Seller and you don't want to do that or they may not work with you at all. And if the buyer does make that "low ball" offer then the Realtor tell the seller just to ignore it, you don't even have to counter, it is way to low.

So the Seller Does not Counter and the Buyer is left with well I guess I offended the Seller, but in Reality you should have your Buyers agent or you be there when the offer is presented and make sure that the Seller understands. Also the Seller should counter or the Realtor should encourage another offer, just leaving it at oh well you offended the Seller well that is just a bit too much and not really based in the Real needs of Buyers and Seller but instead a game by the Realtors. Most Sellers, though disappointed at a low offer, they won't be jerks about it, they will do something... to let the buyers know where they are at with all of it.. it is the Realtors that add games to the mix and alienated buyers and sellers forever.

Also on this note Realtors can have there Sellers sign something that they put in the file that says, don't bring any offers below such and such dollars. This way the Realtor can show the property and can reject offers right from their desk and they don't even have to tell the Seller they go an offer...

Well just a Few Tidbits on that Subject. Just Remember never settle for answers that you feel are just not quite right.

Are you Still Paying 8% for your Realtor to list your Land? Realtors are Scaming you, Realtors Lie.

This is a VERY big scam. There is less liability and less work to do when listing land, and yet the Realtors convince the Seller that land is worth more commission to the Realtor. I fought this my first year in real estate, I offered 5% but my fellow Realtors convinced my Sellers and potential Sellers that I was not offering the same service or as good for those rates, when in fact I was offering more then “the same service”. And one of the Realtors went door to door telling folks how me offer "cheaper rates" was because I was not as good or offering less of a service. Yes Unethical and in the Realtor Ethics and Standards of Practice, but these games and attempts at boycotting Realtors who give you a break, as a real estate consumer, these things happened ALL the time and they still do.

Don’t let Realtors convince you that land is worth a higher commission, this is a scam.
