What is a Bidding War on a DTLA Condo

If you’re like many people who want to buy a condo in Downtown LA, be prepared: When the market is hot, you might find yourself in the middle of a bidding war.

So what does that mean – and how will it affect you?

What is a Bidding War on a DTLA Condo?

A bidding war happens when multiple people make an offer on a condo. The seller can pick which offer he or she wants to accept, which means the buyers are in the position to bid higher in an attempt to win.

If you and three other people all put in very similar offers on a $450,000 condo in DTLA, your agent will let you know – and you have the option of raising your offer. You might want to do it incrementally, or you might have the “go big or go home” attitude. Either way, it’s up to you whether you want to sweeten the deal for the seller.

Your agent will give you guidance, though – don’t add another $100,000 to your purchase offer without checking with your REALTOR(R) first, because in the vast majority of cases, that’s going to be overkill.
