The best offer isn't just the highest..look at financing, emd, closing date, etc. I took an offer once that was higher than another because the seller insisted, even though I felt like their financing wasn't as strong. Guess what fell apart?

That depends on the offers, both price and terms and conditions. But it's the sellers choice - they pick the best and off you go.

You go back and ask each buyer for their highest and best and then go through each with the seller with pros and cons, the highest offer is not always the best if it is loaded with contingencies.

Ruth Mary Hansen weigh the pros and cons of the offer. Best in price does not mean the best offer. Check other terms and conditions of the offers and most important - you are the guide, seller is a decision maker.
