For me: two-person household, life sacrifices for 20% down (I miss Chik Fil A), having my own handylady skills and getting a fixer upper that didn't need contractor-fixin. And apple cider to calm nerves and sadness attached to being outbidded.

RIGHT?! Even after doing "everything right" (meeting traditional requirements and not skimping on a down payment) you can still lose out on a house to a cash bidder, or to a higher bidder. Average Joe is going to need to step up his game if he doesn't want to lose out the house of his choice.
