Thinking about selling your house can be daunting. I like to say it’s a complex and infrequently conducted transaction! What separates a great listing team from others is the ability to provide advice, guidance, and excellence with each step of the process. In Part 4 of this series, we’ll discuss negotiating the sale of your house.
Negotiations begin with communication. How showings and offers will be handled should be a strategy, discussed with you upfront, and communicated to any buyer or agent who asks. We’re building momentum with our ‘Coming Soon’ strategy in order to ensure as many potential buyers come through the door as possible during a short period of time. This can create an auction-like environment which can lead to multiple offers and a bidding war. And as anyone who has been to an auction can tell you, the energy and excitement amongst buyers who are competing often leads to a higher price. Communicating with buyers and their agents during this process begins the negotiations.
Another reason multiple offers are advantageous is that it gives you a choice when it comes to the other important factors of an offer besides price. We help you evaluate the terms — closing date, financing, earnest money amount, etc — as well as the agent, lender, and buyer! We want you to have the information you need to choose the buyer and offer that is most likely to get you to the closing table.
Whether you are planning to sell in the next couple of months or next year, our multiple-offer process and strong negotiation skills will ensure you not only get the best price for your home, but also the best terms and a solid buyer who will make it to the closing table.
