Through these 27 tips, you will discover how to protect and capitalize on your most important investment, reduce stress, be in control of your situation, and make the most profit possible.
17. Learn Why Your Buyer is Motivated
The better you know your buyers, the better you can use the negotiation process to your advantage.
This allows you to control the pace and duration of the process.
As a rule, buyers are looking to purchase the best affordable property for the least amount of money.
Knowing what motivates them enables you to negotiate more effectively.
For example, does your buyer need to move quickly?
Armed with this information, you are in a better position to bargain.
18. What the Buyer Can Really Pay
As soon as possible, try to learn the amount of mortgage the buyer is qualified to carry and how much his/her deposit is.
If their offer is low, ask their Realtor about their ability to pay what your home is worth.
19. When the Buyer Would Like to Close
Quite often, when buyers would like to close is when they need to close.
Knowledge of their deadlines for completing negotiations again creates a negotiation advantage for you.
20. Never Sign a Deal on Your Next House Until You Sell Your Current House
Beware of closing on your new Lansdowne, Mitchells Plain or Ottery houses while you are still making mortgage payments on the old one or you might end up becoming a seller who is eager (even desperate) for the first deal that comes along.
