You can go through mortgage underwriting first and commit to pay the gap between appraised value and deal value, and can make a no-contingency offer with minimum risk. Or, if you are willing to lose your deposit (usually 3-5%) you can also make a no-contingency offer to be more attractive.

clquery, a SQL interface to cloud resources. Using SQL and tables to interact with AWS (and eventually others) makes it easier to quickly query and join across various resources and services without needing to remember how to make and parse the underlying API.
`pip install clquery` or https://github.com/dongting/clquery
