How many offers does it take to buy a Camarillo home?

My partner, Greg Ricci, and I have been working for the past year with a  first-time home buyer couple, Joe and Jane (not their real names).  Joe and Jane are pre-approved buyers, nothing to sell, money in the bank.  They have the right combination – ready, willing and able.  Joe and Jane know where they want [...]
