Should I contact sellers and “low-ball offers?” |
| |
a. Although our site promotes buyers to make offers, we strongly encourage
our members to offer the best possible price for each piece of real
estate you are interested and financially able to purchase. This will
illustrate to the seller you are serious about buying and further give
you the best chance of successfully buying the property.
|

How does your offer system work? What are my options when responding
to offers? |
| |
a. Our online offer system is a verbal (email-based) communication
channel that provides buyers of real estate a non-intimidating medium
to make offers on real estate.
b. When a member (buyer) makes an offer, the seller has the ability
to respond to the offer 3 ways:
i. Accept offer: This means that the terms of the offer are acceptable.
Acceptance of this offer will provide an indication to both parties
of this acceptance and contact information from both parties will
be shared with each member
ii. Negotiate offer: This means that the terms of the offer are not
acceptable to the seller. Selecting ‘negotiate’ keeps
the communication channel open while responding to the offering party
with new terms. This process can continue until both parties agree
to terms. Once this occurs, a party will select ‘accept offer’
and contact information will be exchanged.
iii. Reject offer: Rejecting an offer completely cuts off communication
amongst parties. If a buyer has submitted an offer that is not acceptable
to the seller, we recommend negotiating the offer.
c. VERY IMPORTANT: OUR OFFER SYSTEM IS NOT A LEGALLY BINDING
CONTRACT. IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CONSULT A REAL ESTATE
ATTORNEY OR THE LIKE TO DRAFT A LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT.

My property is currently listed with a real estate agent, can
I still use your services to achieve maximum exposure and marketing efforts? |
| |
a. If your property is currently listed you can either encourage your
agent to place your property on our site and have them monitor the messages,
showing requests, and offers or you can place your property on our site
and control all of the messaging. Please understand that once
you have signed a listing contract you are obligated to pay your agent
a fee regardless if you find the buyer.

How do I know if the person making me an offer is financially
capable of purchasing my property? |
| |
a. iwantanoffer.com screens buyers by having them upload a dated preapproval
letter. All users that are preapproved have an icon next to their username.
As with all preapprovals, these are only indications and we encourage
you to contact their mortgage broker or further communicate with your
buyer regarding this matter.
