It's like I've lost my physic powers. In the past, I would write an offer that I knew was going to either be countered or rejected.   I don't know about you but lately, I've been involved in some creative transactions.  I have learned not to say "this will never fly" ever again.  Deals I thought had no way of coming together, come together.

I'd like to think of myself as an "outside the box" thinker and it has come in handy a few times.  I have put a deal together where the seller was providing the financing to a buyer who just had a recent bankruptcy.  I've had a seller who was considering renting to the buyers, who have no down payment, until their house sells.  Sellers seem to be willing to take more risks to make the deal than they would in a "normal" market  We all know that the banks aren't.

Now, it seem just about anything goes.   As real estate professionals, we have to be open to trying to make the impossible, possible.  No one ever said this job is easy.

Take care.

Hi Cindy,

Yes. We just went through a deal where the first offer came in way too low, but we stayed with it. In the end, my clients dropped 9k but the buyers came up 30K. It's not what I expected to happen, but I am glad things worked out all around.

Hi Cindy - I'm also seeing some unbelievable things happen with negotiations.  I agree with you - think out of the box and get creative because many times we can pull these deals together, which may have seemed impossible at the start.  Great post!!!

Cindy,

"We have to be open to trying to make the impossible, possible." Nothing could be truer! :)
