Low-Ball Offers: Homes For Sale: Homes For Rent

In order to increase your chances of having a low-ball offer accepted, buyers need to keep several things in mind.

My suggestion is to find a property that has been on the market for a while; 12 months or more is a good start.

The purchaser needs to have a good idea of the current market. Understanding the local market and recent industry trends is a must. Finding a Realtor who is versed in the subject is important, in my view. You can utilize this Blog as a source to get an idea and I encourage you to follow up with me for more detailed information.

Having the right representative negotiate the deal is also important. Being versed in the industry and having the necessary negotiating skills to consummate the deal is also key.

All of this leads to being able to deliver the message with facts to back up the offer. Someone with analytical skills to dissect the situation and deliver the offer with factual information will help to get a low-ball deal done.

The offer needs to be direct and concise without leaving much ambiguity. Making a clean and strong offer helps to "grease the wheels" to get this type of deal to the finish line.

The buyer also needs to have a final number in mind and know when to get to the final and best offer you are willing to make. This allows the agent to be able to negotiate in a fluid manner and not seem uncertain. As mentioned earlier, the offer needs to be clean and negotiations need to get directly to the bottom line.

The buyer must be pre-qualified and or have proof of cash funds. The buyer should not believe cash will ultimately win. Sellers are looking for the most they can get. If it means going with a pre-qualified buyer rather than a cash deal, then so be it. The point is, cash buyers should not be too overconfident.
