How difficult can it be to buy a home in metro Atlanta?
Well, the answer is pretty difficult sometimes actually. We have recovered at an amazing rate since the crash. Prices are considerably higher and they continue to climb. Inventory is our biggest issue and that lack of available homes makes the pricing issue come into play also.
What happens when there are more buyers in an area, in a given price range, than there are available homes to sell? Multiple offers.
Why are multiple offers so difficult? Can't I just tell the listing agent that I want to pay full price and ask for all my closing costs and surely I will be the winner? Ah, no, not the best strategy.
