subject: Hout Bay Houses: 10 Tips to Selling Your Home #9 [print this page] 10 TIPS TO SELL YOUR HOME FAST AND AT THE LARGEST PROFIT
As your Llandudno or Hout Bay Real Estate is your largest investment and selling your property will probably be the largest decision you are going to make in your life, we have put together 10 tips that will help you and guide you through the process of selling your home, from appearance, to pricing your home correctly, to selecting the right agent, etc.
Tip #9: A Low Offer: Do Not Take It Personally
Invariably, both you and the prospective purchaser know that the initial offer is below what he is finally prepared to pay for your Llandudno or Hout Bay house, in most cases.
Instead, evaluate the offer that has been presented to you. Check the selling price, check the deposit. Is it sufficient? Check how he is financing the deal. Check the time allowance. When will he come up with the money? Check the occupation dates, etc.
Quite often, people concentrate too much on the prospective purchasers offer (the price) instead of looking at all the other conditions attached.
At least once all the other boxes have been ticked and you are happy with all the other conditions, then move on to price.
Tip #10: Creating Deadlines
Deadlines for selling your Hout Bay or Llandudno properties can create a serious negotiating disadvantage.
If you do have some deadlines (for example, starting at a new place of employment and you need to be there by a certain date) keep these deadlines as close as possible to your chest.
If a buyer picks up that you are seriously pressed for time in selling your real estate, they will think nothing of using it to their advantage and negotiating a lower price.
