Negotiate with the Seller

Negotiation begins before we get started looking. A strong position is enhanced by getting pre-qualified for a mortgage. Better yet, becoming pre-approved will maximize your ability to strike a deal most favorable to you.

When we find the right home, I will:

  • look up prices of similar homes sold in the last 6 months
  • help you compare it to any other homes you've looked at
  • help you evaluate its condition and assess the amount of work it needs
  • determine how long it's been on the market and check to see if the price has been reduced
  • help you develop a strategy using time, price, and terms to your advantage

I'll will draw from my many years of experience in negotiating real estate transactions, always with your best interests in mind.

Whether it's starting with your best offer, saving room to maneuver, compromising, or making concessions to the seller's counter, my objectivity helps you make a wise decision.
