> Who’s going to win in a bidding war for a three-bedroom in a suburb of Cincinnati: a single-income family with a scrabbled-together 10 percent down payment or a Wall Street LLC offering cash?

I don't see why the seller would care. They're getting a check at closing, that's all they care about.

I mean, if there's a question about whether the buyer will actually be able to get financing, that could be a concern. But most buyers are pre-qualified (at least if they're working with an agent). The main reason they would not get financing is if the appraisal came in lower than the sale price.
