HANDLING THIRD-PARTY ADVICE

When it comes to handling advice from third parties, such as friends, relatives, and associates, it’s important to consider the source. Before taking their advice into account, consider how many homes they have sold in the same area, particularly in the last year.

While their intentions may be well-meaning, it’s important to stick to the tested strategy developed by us. Be gracious and thank them for their input, but ultimately rely on our experience.

Offers

Deciding whether to accept an early offer below the asking price can be a challenging decision for a property owner. It’s important to remember that the best offers are often made in the first weeks of a property hitting the market, due to the high level of competition and fear of missing out among buyers. However, it’s crucial to consider the buyer’s qualifications and motivations before dismissing an offer. As your agents, we may have been working with the buyer for months and they may be highly motivated to purchase a home, willing to pay a premium for the right property, and have a deep understanding of the market.

Before making a decision, review the research provided by us, and remember that as skilled negotiators, we will work to achieve the maximum offer from the buyer.

Ultimately, the decision to accept or reject an offer is yours, and we will support you throughout the process.
