Ok here's the dilema...what would you do in this situation. DH and I went to an open house on Sat and totally feel in love with the house. It has been reduced before and has been on the market for a few months...when we were at the open house the list agent showed us around and was very helpful (which they all are when they want to make a sale)..we must have spent about 40 minutes with him...he was about our age (late twenties) and new we were interested. Anyway, we have been working with an agent (my aunts friend) who is extremely honest and not the type who is out for herself well atleast not with us...but like I sad she is a good friend of my aunts...So here is where the dilema comes in...We were thinking of making our offer through her since we know she will be honest.....but does that look bad that we are not doing it through the list agent who has already called me two times to follow up? What do you guys think? What would you do?

don't get me wrong, definitely underbid. decide what your ceiling is and go from there (bid lower and increase if need be).

let us know what happens.

hey dani! i totally didn't realize that was you! haha! bri said something to me the other day and then i put it all together. too funny! CONGRATS on the news!!! very exciting!
as far as this house stuff.....it sux. haha! it was pretty stressful for us but so worth it now that we're all moved in. if there is anything we can help you guys with, please ask. we were pretty clueless when we first started looking. we had a realitor from the beginning of looking. what we were told was to go and look at any house whether we were with her or not. but when we went to open houses to sign in under a different name b/c we were told that once we looked at a house we were tied to that agent who was doing the open house. i don't know if this is 100% true but this is what we were told. i would call your aunts friend and see what she says.
