Sellers Respond Better to Written Offers.
Recently I have had lots of calls on my listings from agents representing buyers interested in knowing if we get any offers. I have even had my own buyers tell me to let them know if we get an offer on a home that they are interested in.
I want to remind everyone of a rule that applies to many things in life, ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.
Real Estate is a contract type of business. Real Estate negotiations are similar to a chess game. Each player takes their turn and makes a completed move before the other continues. The game doesn’t really begin until someone writes a contract.
Asking a listing agent or even your buyer’s agent to let you know if the home gets any offers is a bad plan. This will most likely result in a higher price for you the buyer and could potentially cost a seller a real buyer.
If an agent calls me to see if we have any offers on a property I will respond with an honest answer of the status. Once I have a buyer present a reasonable offer I will likely try to close that deal with the buyer that means business. I don’t think it is always in the sellers best interest to shop the offer and risk loosing the buyer that we have by trying to bring additional buyers that were not motivated enough to write an offer without the presence of a competing offer.
Are there exceptions? Absolutely! If the offer that is presented is low or unreasonable to the seller, then I will definitely try to persuade some competitive offers.
In closing, I would recommend writing an offer on a property that fits your needs and price range while there are no competing offers. I would also recommend writing an offer that reflects a price and terms that are near what you are willing to pay. Putting in low-ball offers will often result in additional competing offers and less opportunity to actually purchase the home.
I will often ask a buyer “ Do you want to write an offer, or buy a home?”

DRE#01703081 Big Bear's hardest Working Professional Agent "If you're lucky enough to live in the Mountains, you're lucky enough" I can show you any Big Bear Home, regardless of the listing agent.
Steve has strong sales ability that he acquired through years of retail management. He exemplifies integrity, honesty and tenacity. Steve is committed to total customer satisfaction. He is a strong negotiator for his clients and tackles problems with enthusiasm. Steve will exceed your expectations and out work his competition. Born in Paso Robles, CA. A native to California, Steve has lived in numerous communities through out Southern California, including Paso Robles, Atascadero, Santa Maria, Oxnard, Huntington Beach, San Diego and Big Bear Lake. Steve spent 10 years in Santa Maria and graduated from Santa Maria High in 1979.
One year after graduation he married his wife, Shelli. Steve and Shelli have 4 beautiful daughters, Christine, Stephanie, Michelle, and Jennifer. All four were raised here in beautiful Big Bear Lake. Shelli and Steve have owned Shelli's Hallmark Shop here in Big Bear since 1990.
Steve's hobbies include mountain biking, water skiing, snow skiing, snow shoeing, and hikinSteve has participated in charity cycling events including the peak to peak on two occasions (a ride from Big Bear to Mammoth Mountain). In fall of 2004 Steve rode the San Juan Mountains from Telluride, Co. to Moab, Ut. Steve can often be found on a bike on the top of a mountain. Steve says he's excited about the Real Estate market here in Big Bear, and investment opportunities are abundant. Big Bear is Southern California's four season resort.
Our Coldwell Banker office is located in the heart Big Bear Lake, California and is ideally located to serve and market to all of the other cities in the Big Bear Valley. Centrally located in Southern California, and surrounded by National Forest, the Big Bear Lake area is only a couple of hours away from all the major Southern California counties.
Big Bear Property ownership offers four seasons of fun. In winter and spring you can enjoy Big Bear Valley's great snow skiing and boarding at Bear Mountain and Snow Summit ski resorts. In summer and fall there is fishing, boating and water skiing in Big Bear Lake. There is also mountain biking, hiking, golfing, horseback riding, and many other scheduled events. Additionally, you'll find great shopping, dining, and of course, relaxing...which is big part of what owning Big Bear Real Estate is all about! All in all, Big Bear Lake is a fantastic place to own a home for full time living or vacation use.
The fact is that the real estate market is booming in Big Bear Lake. And the prices of Big Bear homes and land that are currently being marketed by The Tim Wood Group are still very affordable. For investors that have given up on buying real estate "down the hill", Big Bear Real Estate is still a great investment opportunity. Quality Big Bear Properties can still be found at prices far below those that are found in the majority of Southern California's real estate markets. As with most markets, you'll find that our prices will vary depending on what location you want to buy your Big Bear Property in. Big Bear lakefront homes and estates are of course more expensive than a quaint cabin in some of the other areas of Big Bear, but you'll find all the areas offer their own unique investment opportunities. If you plan to buy a second home in the Big Bear Lake area, then you may even want to consider a home that is suitable for a vacation rental program.
Another unique aspect of the Big Bear Lake market is the availability of raw land. Unlike the real estate market down the hill, you'll find that vacant land is readily available as an investment option. Whether you're buying land as an investment itself; buying it for the purpose of building a home on speculation, or building the custom home of your dreams, the Big Bear Real Estate market is ripe with opportunities. The experts at The Tim Wood Group are the area specialists in raw land subdivisions. And having developed a large portion of the Big Bear area, we can help you with every aspect of this process including the names of quality builders in the Big Bear Lake area.
At The Tim Wood Group, our goal is to demonstrate that professionalism truly exists in the real estate industry, and our commitment is to prove this with every Big Bear Real Estate transaction we complete. Since 1976, we have sold more than 5000 Big Bear Properties, and we have been consistently been ranked in the top echelon for independent producers. We are also a Coldwell Banker franchise. And as such, we are members of Coldwell Banker's world-renowned referral network system.
“Steve did a great job and is very knowledgeable about the area. He was very patient with us and spent a lot of time investigating housing options. We live out of town and communication with a agent in a different city could be difficult. Steve was alway available via phone or email. He was wonderful to work with and we would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs an agent.”

” Steve is knowledgeable of local realty issues, and he is upfront with his ideas and thoughts which put me at ease when I raised a question. I had interviewed three realtors before listing my property. Steve’s value apprasal of my home must have been on the mark. I had two good offers and sold within a few weeks on the market. Prior to listing my home, I interviued three local realtrs. One of the three (B.B) apprased my home 20k less than my sale price.”

“Steve Hirschler was an invaluable asset to us in the search for our Big Bear Lake home. He is professional and highly knowledgeable of the area and the entire real estate process. Most importantly, Steve always made us feel like we were his top priority and remained highly accessible to us to help resolve any question, issue or concern we had along the way. We very much appreciated being able to utilize him as a trusted reference as we navigated the property search, negotiation & loan process. Steve even made a few trips out to the home to check on some repairs, utility setup issues and even to cut off a pesky gate padlock for us on a Sunday evening, weeks after the deal closed. We were fortunate to have discovered Steve Hirschler and we would certainly recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate agent. Thank you Steve! Scott & Kirsten Chapman “

“I am a short sale negotiator and have recently had the pleasure to work with Steve Hirschler. I have had the opportunity to work with many Realtors and Steve is without a doubt; one of the finest agents I’ve worked with. Not only does he answer his phone the majority of the time, but he returns calls at his earliest convenience. Documents were provided BEFORE they were technically needed and questions were always answered in a timely fashion. Working with Steve has been an absolute pleasure; and I am grateful to have had such a wonderful business partner assisting me with this sale. Thank you again Steve and the best to you and yours on the eve of this new year! Donna Crognale “

Every time that he said he would call us with an update on a specific date, he did and was great with followthrough with the bank. Never once did I worry if something would fall through the cracks. I highly recommend Steve as an agent.”
