Hi Kevin, can you please tell me more about the Forensic 50? Looking forward to hearing from you.

Overpaying isn’t random. It’s the result of: - structured information asymmetry (agent side) - predictable behavioural responses (buyer side) Finder’s data is powerful because it shows: - this isn’t rare - it’s systemic - and it’s measurable

The data lines up into a clear sequence: 1. Entry point distortion - Underquoting - selective comparables 2. Competitive escalation - multiple buyers - auction dynamics 3. Behavioural pressure - urgency - fear of missing out 4. Outcome - budget blown - price stretched 5. Reflection - regret (45%) - auction regret spike (77%)

From Reddit (useful for behavioural insight): “You’re always going to overpay at auction…” “Buyers… were lured in by marketing or manipulated by negotiation tactics” Agents claiming buyers that don’t exist / pressure tactics This aligns with the survey data: - perceived manipulation - pressure escalation - regret post-purchase
