KEY TIPS FOR BUYING OR SELLING IN TODAY’S MARKET
One shift we're seeing in the current market is more buyers choosing to conduct home inspections rather than waive them. We're also seeing more conversations and negotiations come up after inspections are completed.
For sellers, this is a good reminder that your negotiation strategy shouldn't end once you accept an offer. Before your home goes under contract, talk with your agent about how you plan to approach negotiations at two different points in the sale.
First, what matters most to you when evaluating an offer? Price is important, but so are the inspection terms, financing, closing timeline, and other contingencies.
Second, what happens if the buyer comes back with concerns after the inspection? Thinking through some of those “what if” scenarios ahead of time can help you understand where you have flexibility, what solutions may fit within your budget, and where you may not be willing to compromise.
For buyers, planning ahead is important too. Before making an offer, talk with your agent about what you hope to learn from an inspection and how you might respond if an issue is uncovered. An inspection can provide valuable information about a home, but deciding what, if anything, to ask the seller to address is also part of the negotiation.
You can't anticipate every issue that may come up when buying or selling a home, but you can have a plan for how you'll make those decisions if they do.
