In a real estate market with multiple offers, the highest price doesn't always win. 

If you're a real estate buyer, it's important to avoid common mistakes that can cost you in the long run. In this podcast episode, the TR team discusses the importance of working with a professional agent, getting a home inspection, and not relying solely on advice from family and friends.

Factors such as the buyer's agent's presentation, clauses and conditions in the offer, and emotional attachment to the property can influence a seller's decision. It's important for buyers to work with a professional agent who can provide guidance and ask personal questions to help them make informed decisions. Don't let your lack of experience lead to costly mistakes. Take action and work with a trusted professional to make informed decisions in the real estate market.
