How To Avoid A Bidding War When Making An Offer

How can I avoid a bidding war?

If you know there are other bidders on the property, then this is one of those occasions where you really need to put your best foot forward. That means you've got to put the highest bid in that you can with as much information as possible. That means you've got to have a note of your funding and finance, so that can be produced, a note of who your solicitor is. If the seller and the estate agent have all that information and they know you've made the best offer, they're going to be much keener to accept your bid and get on with it, and not wait for anybody else.
