Thank you! TBH with you it used my usual SSR method. Every time you see a contract above 200 points and your uy's put an offer in the $70s and see what happens. I wasnt going to accept anything in the $80s because I didnt need it. I think circumstances and luck were on my side.

I thought perhaps maybe the direct SSR sale right now will lower prospective resale buyers too. Maybe someone looking for ssr would be inclined to go direct with that deal and leave more resales on the table, forcing sellers to sell for less was my train of thought and then the seller with his life circumstances who just wanted out.

I did not expect this seller to come back a month later of him saying no. By then, I had already stopped looking completely because I was in the middle of a direct purchase that I thought I wouldnt be able to purchase until March. So even less need for another resale.

Even though im always scared of rofr lol I thought man this contract has the same uy as mine, happens to have the same number of points to get me to the 1k I really want, and accepted my lowest offer. This is screaming that its meant for me

Now im impatiently waiting for Mason to send me my closing docs so I can wrap this thing up and get to vacationing!!

I’m just at a loss as to whether I should comment further in the future in this thread; I feel like my initial comment generated a huge firestorm but also didn’t say what it was purported to say.

Each contract has its own unique risks. I do feel that when the buyers are the ones taking on much larger risks, they should be given steeper discounts for each risk. Since the rescission period is just ten days, you really want to ensure you are ok with those risks at that price before the rescission period is up.

I don't think it was your comment alone. Others, including myself, were offering input where non was asked for. I just waited until someone else opened the door . And, your post said things many of the rest of us were thinking. IMO, I value your thoughts and feedback, and I think you should continue to offer it as you see appropriate. Yes, others are free to say what they want in return, including, hey guys, I'm not sure the poster is asking for our input. I think @VGCgroupie put it well in one her posts - when you post something online, you are implicitly inviting feedback. Of course, we all like this community, and I think want the ROFR thread to continue, so I don't think we want this to turn into a judging contest for each deal posted, but I don't personally think it has become quite that bad.

Agree 110%.!!!
I mean, isn’t that what we’re doing here?
People can just go buy whatever they want they don’t need to do any research or report to these boards for any other reason except to “play the game” (maybe participate is a better word) which is to make sure you get exactly what you want… not the best deal to everyone, but best for your own situation.

I don’t think any of us know for fact that it wasn’t exactly what they wanted or not, we’re just giving our opinions and thoughts on the info we were given.

I dont think theyll give a damn about our opinion when theyre watching the fireworks from their poly balcony with their family and friends
