Accepting Backup Offers or Not, What is the Gig?
When an offer comes in from a buyer, depending on the offer, your listing agent may suggest that you accept backup offers just in case the current buyer does not continue with the purchase. How can you tell? I think it depends on the offer that the buyer wrote with his/her agent. If it appears weak in terms of not having a large enough deposit or down payment, it doesn’t hurt the seller to accept backup offers.
Now, those backup offers do not automatically knock out the buyer who the seller has accepted an offer with…they are just in case type of offers.
Currently, there are 3 homeowners of single family homes in 90802 accepting backup offers. 4 additional properties are in escrow with the status as pending sale.
