Counteroffers and Market Value

Frequent questions about closing the sale often surround the actual pricing and negotiating, but by assuming that everyone is being truthful, you’ll have a much easier time.

Most people who sell their home expect a buyer to offer a bid that is a little low so they can counter it.  Unfortunately, sellers don’t usually think that way.  Don’t let your deal be derailed by countering a good offer.  If you get a good offer, accept it.

Home prices are usually what the homeowner expects to get.  There once was a time when houses were placed on the market at a price the owners planned on ‘coming down on’ when they got  a real offeer. However, today’s homes are priced to sell.  You won’t find much, if any, leeway in those prices.
