No, it starts in the written offer or is added in written counter offers as the negotiations continue. Once there's been a meeting of the minds, then it becomes final. The point is that all terms are written down along the way, redacted if given up or added as they become necessary.

I originally posted a question since something sounded interesting in your last post, but never mind. It doesn't matter what you say and you chose not to apologize . . . so nevermind.

I think where people get sideways with each other on the forums, me included, is when we try to state our subjective opinions as fact, and then berate those who disagree.

If you review some of the allegations you make about real estate agents and the use of a letter as a communication tool accompanying an offer, I think you might see that some strong accusations were made about what it means when a buyer writes a letter along with an offer.

I simply did my best to offer you some context and examples as to why it's not as nefarious as you seem to believe. Others were more succinct. I'm not really sure what an apology from me would accomplish, but I'm sorry I wasn't more skilled and friendly in trying disabuse you of the notion that buyer letters are evil.
