Our offer for a Corporate Relocation was placed last Thursday.It`s a strong offer with no contingencies.
The Listing Agent sent the Corporate Addendum,which our buyer agreed to sign.
We heard back from the Listing Agent last night. They wanted to discuss our offer for the 3rd time in three days.
I`ve written thousands of offers, I`m very familiar with "putting together" an offer,so became very curious where this agent was coming from.
The Conversation is as follows:
Listing A: We were wondering can you`re client "Up the offer?"...
Me: Did you receive a counter offer from the Relo Company?
Listing A: Actually No! We may have another offer arriving within the next day or so..
Me: A MAYBE OFFER? You`re kidding me, right?
Listing A: Well, it would be better if you spoke to the Buyer just in case!.
Me: You want me to call our buyer and tell them to Up an offer based on a Maybe Offer, is that right?
Listing A: Yeah! That way your Buyer can be assured they have the home!
I don`t about you, but there is no way in God`s Green Earth I`ll call a buyer and explain to them increase their offer based on a "Maybe Offer" that hasn`t yet arrived...

It`s like biding against yourself.
