That’s not what I mean , there are people who will put an offer subtracting the price of the bond , that is a big no from most sellers the bond is the buyers problem they either want the house at price or not , as far as the no bond, people I know. They make an offer on the price of home not the price the seller is trying to get because he has factored in the price of bond. The price of bond or lack of bond is right now in this market only a part of the the equation , seller can ask what he wants and usually more right now . I did on my last sale and got much more in offer because they didn’t want to lose house. I’ve never bought a home here where I even cared about the bond , and I have had many very expensive homes and condos over the years and never put more then 20% down I have better things to do with my money especially with pretty decent interest rates for so many years
