What is the best way to go about putting an offer in on a home?

The county appraisal and the sale price are significantly different. I don’t have a basis of comparison b/c other homes in that neighborhood have not been up for sale lately. I want to present an offer, but I don’t know what I should do?
P.s. I didn’t want to get a real estate agent involved….I’ve already found the house I want.

things to do before buying land?

I found a half acre lot in an established neighborhood that has my interest. It is one of the last lots for sale in that subdivision.

Should I get a personal realtor to work with the realty company selling the property, or am I ok to negotiate directly?

What are some good things to do or check before purchasing?

Your advice is greatly appreciated!

Unbearable Neighbor?

There is a guy in my neighborhood that is, in my opinion, pure evil. He has no friends out here. He is a total snob. He shows off to everyone out here. We have an association and he does not abide by any of the rules. They have fined him. He defies that. They have gone as far as law suits. He threatens them and they back off. He took out a half page of the local newspaper telling how horrible his home was to try and make the other home values go down. He is smart enough to know his limits. He has never crossed the line, so nothing can be done to him. He was once made to put his house up for sale by the association. He made sure that he was a total a$$ to all prospects, which led to no sale and getting rid of him. He paid cash for his house and he flaunts that at everyone. What would you do? I am newly elected on the board here and we are totally dumbfounded. Our attorney says there is nothing more we can do until he breaks the law. We just want to get rid of him!!
The surveillence cameras are a good thought, but he already beat us to it. He installed them in every window of his home and records all activity on the block. He is on the end, so he has a view all the way down the street. Signs are prohibited in the neighborhood, so he went as far as putting writing down the side of his Mercedes to thwart us with derogatory messages. We couldn’t do anything about that. He seems to be quite intelligent. One of the member here suggested that we should report this to his place of employment. We found out that he is high up in his company. How they can stand him, God only knows. The attorney said that he could then possibly sue us for several different laws if we did that.
One more thing I forgot to add, he also threatened to take a substantial loss on his home and sell it to a convicted sex offender if he was forced to sell again. There are no schools near us, so we couldn’t deny the sale. That would be a nightmare to all of us, even worse than him!
