2 houses I’ve been out bid on. First one went for $30,000 over asking but it was a very desirable home with some unique features. This last one I bid 15,000 over asking and still got outbid. The realtors blame the school system. I’m simply trying to stay in the kids school district but it’s a fight between what’s big enough, what’s available, and what I can afford. On the verge of pulling my damn hair out.
