Preparing the Offer

When you view a home on the market that you really want, you can hardly wait to be handed the keys. We are in a “seller’s market” which means for every home on the market the seller receives about 5-10 offers. But don’t you worry. You’ve got an expert by your side.  Me. My job is to ensure I provide you with the best offer you are comfortable putting forward in order to win the home of your dreams.

This can be a stressful process but it does not have to if you can follow my lead. Please know I look after your best interest throughout the entire process.

How the Process Works

When you decide to make an offer on a home, here’s what typically happens:

• I’ll recommend a price that has the best chance of being accepted by the seller.
• Obviously, sellers prefer offers that have no conditions. However, I may suggest shorter time frames but we will talk strategy when it is time.
• I’ll prepare the necessary documents. Keep in mind “time is of the essence” and you will want to review the documents right away and sign so I can get your offer over to the listing agent.
• If the offer isn’t accepted, or if the seller makes a counter-offer, I’ll work with the seller’s agent, skillfully negotiating on your behalf to make a deal.
• I’ll communicate with you throughout the entire process. You’re never in the dark when you work with me.
• Once the seller agrees to a deal, I’ll help lead you through removal of any conditions and closing the deal. Then, the home is yours. Congratulations!

When you go after a property you really want, you can take comfort in knowing you have an expert on your side… someone who knows how to get that home for you.
