Answer:
RE Agents have to evaluate more than just the offering price. There may have been some terms of the contract that were more appealing to the Seller in the other contract, all of which the entire "offer". The Seller in the end makes the final call, all the RE Agent should do is advise them as to the terms and conditions of the offer to make it more clear and easy to understand. They will also offer their unbiased opinion based on the overall condition of the offers. Sorry to hear you didn't get the house, but I think the BBB way is not the way to go as it will most likely get you no where. Good Luck!

| Answer:
There are a lot of other reasons your offer can be rejected. Perhaps they had an earlier closing date, or no contingencies for selling their home, etc. |

| Answer:
Offers are considered based on a number of factors not just on price. Sellers typically choose the strongest offer. Things that determine the strength of an offer include: amount of down payment, amount of reserves in the bank, pre-approved financing, ability to meet the terms of the seller with regards to closing dates, closing costs, etc. |
