My barber of 30 years back in Southern California with whom I remain in touch told me his grandson just got a house under contract as a buyer in Carlsbad, CA. 18 offers in two days. Four were cash buyers including him. His was not the highest offer but near the highest. He had no contingencies or inspection conditions so the sellers accepted his offer. It is just ridiculous now.
