What Do We Do With An Offer? In our current market it is Quite possible that you will get more than one offer on your home, if you price it right. To find out what we do, watch this video.
In our current market, it is quite possible that you will get more than one offer on your home if you price it right. Some price points are definitely hotter than others in the Casper area. Here are some tips about negotiating an offer.
Response time is critical. Recently, I was working with a serious buyer who made an offer, but the seller, through the listing agent, didn’t respond in a timely manner. This aggravated the buyer, and upon the late response, the buyer didn’t wanna negotiate any further and no sale was made. Response time is so important. Even if we just have a few hours to respond, we need to make sure we have the response of the accepted offer or counteroffer back to the buyer’s agent on time.
Work with the offer you have. Don’t count on an offer that you don’t have, even though you heard it was supposed to be coming. If we hear another offer is coming, but we don’t have it and we’re nearing the expiration of the other offer that’s in our hand, we need to respond to the offer we have. All too often, I have heard that an agent is sending an offer on a home, and then, at the last minute, the buyer changed their mind.
Read and understand any offer you’ve received. Make sure you understand all of the clauses and provisions in the contract before you sign. I will go over the contract with you to make sure you understand. Of course, you can always call your attorney for a legal opinion.
I also have sellers triple check that all the personal property that is included in the offer is really staying. Are you taking the washer and dryer and the refrigerator with you, or maybe the hot tub? Double-triple check, because if the buyer asks for it in the contract, once you sign, it is staying.
Do all the dates work into your timeline? How long does the buyer have to do inspections and ask for repairs? It is so important to have an experienced agent to walk you through the home-selling process from start to finish. The Alisha Collins Real Estate Team wants to set you up for selling success.
