"You have to look like the best deal in town," the "Shark Tank" investor says.
Bidding wars are back, as limited housing-market inventory pits buyers against each other. To compete — and certainly to win — buyers need to come fully prepared, Barbara Corcoran says.
Despite a sharp rise in the 30-year mortgage rate to nearly 7%, buyers aren’t able to catch a break, due to a shortage of listings. Competition for homes is intensifying, and the data indicate that “housing has returned to a seller’s market,” Zillow Z said in a recent report. New listings were down 28% in April as compared with April 2022, the company noted.
“If you want to win a bidding war, you have to look like the best deal in town, and here’s what you ought to do: You’ve got to be prequalified for your mortgage so you can go in there as an all-cash deal,” the real-estate expert and “Shark Tank” investor said in response to a viewer question. “Make sure you have no contingencies, [and] make sure you give your best bid upfront because you don’t want to say, ‘I would have bought that house if I hadn’t lost it for $10,000,’ ” Corcoran said.

Trump legal snitch? Trump lawyers fight as insider was reportedly ‘waved off’ searching for docsThe Guardian reporting Donald Trump’s lawyer, Evan Corcoran, was “waved off” from searching Trump’s office for classified documents. A Trump spokesperson denied that allegation. Special Counsel Jack Smith is reportedly eyeing possible obstruction charges as his documents probe nears the finish line. The Guardian's Hugo Lowell, who broke the story, discusses his reporting with MSNBC’s Katie Phang, calling the revelations “really important” to the obstruction investigation, adding Smith already “pierced the attorney client privilege” between Trump and lawyer Evan Corcoran.
