I’m going WAY back this week.  I’m going back 3 years.  There are a LOT of real estate bloggers that can’t go back close to three years because their blogs didn’t exist that long ago.  I actually had been blogging a year by then.  [Horn-tooting over]

I had a series of posts earlier that year called “Into The Mailbag” where I answered on the blog, questions I got from my email.  It was fun, and still one of my favorite things to do… help consumers have a better experience while buying or selling property.  [As a side-note, feel free to shoot me questions for my blog… they are great post ideas]

These two posts were actually inspired by the Into The Mailbag series, but they were not actually asked by my readers or clients.  They were subjects that I always seemed to end up addressing with clients.  I called them “Not into the Mailbag“.

In Not into the Mailbag… Buyers… I posted about offering strategies for buyers.  Many seem to think (still) that offering some percentage of the listing price is the magical solution to getting a good deal and making sure to actually be able to get the property.  It isn’t so…

In Not into the Mailbag… Sellers… I posted about listing price strategies for sellers.  Some sellers try to game buyers by thinking that the listing price should be some magical percentage higher than they actually expect the home to bring.  That isn’t so, either…
