Saturday I saw a home I was interested in pop up on Zillow. it was 2:30PM at 3:00PM I texted my real estate agent and told her I wanted to view it. She got me the soonest appointment she could Monday @ 10AM. I pull up to the house and get out and she says there are multiple offers on the home. I view it like it and put in my offer for 2 thousand over asking and said she could stay 30 days past closing rent free and still lost out on the home. This is basically 1.5 days after the home went up it's already pending. This is in a ho hum suburb in south east Michigan with no major industries here.
I'm seriously wondering if the other people that put in offers even went to view the home before they submitted them. I can't compete with this. I at least wanna be able to view a home and sleep on it. All the good homes are usually gone inside of 2-3 days from the day they go up. I went to look at my backup home I was gonna set up a viewing for and it went up a day before this one and is in pending status too.
I thought a home was supposed to be one of the biggest purchases a person makes in their lives. People are buying these things like they're impulse grabbing a candy bar at the checkout line of a grocery store.
