This is what makes sellers say yes to the offer
"What makes a winning real estate offer these days?"

This is what I've been seeing lately:

The earnest money deposit is at least 2% of the purchase price. This signals to the seller the buyer is serious and committed. 

The inspection contingency is waived - instead of including it in their offer, buyers conduct a pre-inspection before submitting.

The buyer has a fully underwritten pre-approval — a "conditional mortgage approval" is considered the most comprehensive pre-approval a buyer can receive.
