After being in the business for more than 10 years there are many lessons that I have learned along the way.  One thing that is an absolute given is when the buyer's realtor wants to come and present their client's offer to me in person I know for sure that I am about to receive a low-ball offer.  The need to present the offer in person (instead of sending it via email or fax) is code for "I'm giving you a low offer and I need to explain why your...Continue Reading!
