Buyer Attention Tab
This area has two sections: Orders Waiting on Buyer and Offers Waiting on Buyer. Orders and offers that show up here are still open and in process, and the ball is currently in the buyer's court to take the next action. Usually this area is informational and doesn't require immediate action, but one aspect should be closely watched—the First Affected Date column of Offers Waiting on Buyer.
First Affected Date is the first scheduled date for a spot in an offer. If this date is getting close and the offer still needs action from the buyer, it might be a good idea to remind them that the offer is waiting for them to approve or reject.
