What started as "possibly a dozen offers" ended up as 24! I had offered the agents a chance to present their offers and talk a little about their clients in person, although I had a summary sheet waiting when they arrived, so things could move along a little more quickly.
My seller elected to be there, and the buyers' agents were able meet with us both.
I was surprised that six agents still elected to fax in their offers rather than take advantage of this opportunity. There were also several agents who hadn't bothered to read the MLS comments, and neglected to include the rent-back that the seller needed. We had completed all the inspections and made them and the disclosures available online, yet there were some who hadn't downloaded this important information.
Still, there were many very professional and personable Realtors, who presented themselves and their clients in a positive light, and wrote outstanding contracts. They also were aware of the "wow factor" of a letter from the buyers and photos of their families.
