Redfin’s real estate scientists published a big, glorious new report today on when homes will sell for a big discount and when they won’t, based on thousands of home sales across the country. We spent two months grinding through the data because every day, we see buyers with born-to-lose tattoos on their foreheads making lowball offers doomed to instant failure. And then sometimes they win . Nuts! Figuring out fast when a deal will fly and when it won’t is the key to making our margins work.
