a difference between the cash a seller gets from a cash offer and the cash a seller gets from a conventional loan? We have all our ducks in a row financing-wise, pre-approval letter, purchase not contingent on sale of our home, etc.

They took the lower offer because it was a cash offer. Buying a home right now is already super frustrating, but this just seems so stupid to me. I’ve been looking for over a month now. Guess it’s back to square one. Kill me.
