Writing a winning offer in this crazy seller’s market not only takes a little luck but a lot of skill. There are a lot of little things that people do to make an offer stronger. A Colorado contract is 25 pages long and the price is only one line. It sometimes takes more than price to win an offer. You really need to hire a real estate agent that knows what they are doing. There are some agents that are really putting their buyers at risk just to win an offer. That does not need to be done and I would never do that to one of my clients. There is no reason to jeopardize a buyers earnest money or put them in the position that they can lose money after closing because the agent told them to win they need to forego inspections.  A winning offer that makes the seller happy and doesn’t put the buyer at risk can be written by an experienced broker.
