					<description><![CDATA[&quot;If you offer the asking price, and the seller doesn’t have any other offers, then the seller must accept your offer without countering. &quot;

I didn&#039;t know that! I guess when, in wacky markets on HGTV, when a house is really underpriced, they are banking on multiple people making an offer. Cuz if they don&#039;t...whoops!

A realtor told me that if a seller received two similar offers, they will probably go with the one that has a larger down payment so that things wouldn&#039;t get screwed up if the person with a small or non-existent down payment couldn&#039;t secure financing. 

Did you disclose your down payment % on your offer? Or actual amount? Or any of that down payment stuff?

I think its important for people who are buying a brand-new house, or newer construction to get an inspection, because maybe the builder screwed up somewhere. I really don&#039;t understand how anyone would say, &quot;Nah, not going to get an inspection.&quot;]]></description>
