What is a Contingency? 
-The sale and purchase of a house will only happen if certain conditions are met. 
Should a contingent offer be held less then a non contingent offer in this market,
In this market whats the average days on market ? 
August 2020 the average house was on market for 39 days. This means the listing was under contract in the first week listed!
So back to my question should a contingent offer be held less then a non contingent offer in this market?
There is no such thing as a contingent offer everything is selling in the first week of being listed.  ​
