Three tips to get your offer accepted as a buyer.

Tip number one, get pre-approved. Look, there's a difference between pre-qualified and pre-approved. Pre-approved means that you have given the lender all of your financial documents.

If you understand what the seller's motivation is and what they're trying to accomplish, a lot of times it'll help you craft an offer at a better value
