[5-DayForum] False Advertising

Yes, Kimberly.  I used it everywhere.  We even had "Best Bidder" sale yard
signs placed all over town.  Some people showed up thinking it was an estate
sale!  But it brought in traffic and created a huge buzz!  Which was exactly
what I needed after languishing on MLS for so long.

Ha!  I like the phrase "best bidder!"  Did you put that in both places in
the ad?  $249,500 or Best Bidder, and Home to be Sold Sunday Night to Best
Bidder?

I'm no attorney, but I can tell you I doubt that is true.

1.  Most states require a written contract for a real estate transaction.
You are not obligated to sell something based upon an 8 line classified ad.

2.  Somebody would half to spend a lot of money and time to sue you for
specific performance.  By then the house is long sold.  It ain't worth it.
They will simply move on.

3.  I used the process and changed the ad to "Best Bidder".  What is a "Best
Bidder"?.  Is it the highest bidder?  Is it the person that can close
soonest?  Is it the guy that offered to trade me his house Palm Springs?
It's completely subjective, it's whatever I say it is.  There is no
definition for "Best Bidder", thus it would be very difficult to sue.

There are a lot of naysayers that have no idea about the sale but want to
convince you it's a bad idea.  Don't listen to them.  Don't look for reasons
why not to do a 5-day home sale.  Just do it.  It works.

I have sold a house like this before and am about to do it again.  You can
see what I am doing on my blog http://bigbadhomesale.mpwr.tv/news/

I spoke with an attorney and he told me to be careful because if you are not
offered enough from your highest bidder and don't accept the bid that they
could turn around and sue you because the ad says that you will sell Sunday
night to the highest bidder. Does anyone know about this situation??
