Buyers Exceed Seller Expectations with Extreme Overbids

100Teresita

It’s one thing to list a property lower than the targeted price, but 95% of the agents I know who do significant business in San Francisco (including myself) don’t typically list a property for hundreds of thousands of dollars less than expected. So it boggles my mind when I see extreme overbids of 50% or more.

But it’s easy to rationalize a crazy selling price in a hot market with inventory that doesn’t meet the demand. Here’s a look at the latest head shakers for 2018 so far:
