My inspiration for this blog post is my excitement over my most recent contract that I'm negotiating for one of my home buyer clients.
For the 1st time in a year and a half I've been able to counter with the seller. This is not due to my negotiating skills because I'm an awesome negotiator, ask any of my previous clients.
The reason for the lack of being able to counter offer on my other recent home sales is because of multiple offers from other buyers.
That's right, don't believe what you hear on the news because it doesn't apply to every housing market. Metro Atlanta is rapidly turning into a seller's market and if you want to buy a home you have to be willing to compete with other buyers, particularly in the $200,000 and under price range.
If your Agent tells you the seller has received multiple offers on the home, don't ask if you can win with an offer price below list price because most likely you can't. You're also going to have to consider asking for less from the seller because you have competition and they'll most likely choose the buyer who gives them the highest net purchase price. For example my most recent listing 5302 Autumn Run Dr Powder Springs GA was listed at $85k, we received multiple offers and the highest offer was $115k, it's a short sale and a great bargain.
If you're considering selling your home and you'd like to go over all the options available to you, give me a call or send me an email, I get them sold fast.
If you're a serious home buyer and ready to utilize my services to help you find a great home, call me now and I can get you closed before Christmas.
