You have just spent a lovely Saturday afternoon showing Mr & Mrs Buyer lovely 3 bedroom 2 bath pool homes in the $200,000 range.
Mr & Mrs Buyer tell you,they would like to make an offer on the 25th home you showed them today!You are probably excited that your day of being tour guide might actually turn in to a payday! You get back to your office and get a contract package out....you start to fill out the agreement and everything is going swimmingly.You then get to....Ok,how much would you like to offer on this $200,000 home?Mr Buyer tells you $75,000!! You think you misunderstood and ask $175,000?Of which Mr Buyer replies....no $75,000! After you pick yourself up off the floor,other than chasing Mr & Mrs Buyer around the office swinging your gucci purse at them uncontrollably...what do you do?
Now,imagine you are the listing agent of this $200,000 home and Sally realtor calls all perky....I have an offer for you...where can I fax it to?
After you have broken most speed records to get to the nearest fax machine to receive this hard to come by offer thing that you have heard about from other agents but hadn't experienced one lately....after seeing it..... and hoping some of the print didn't come through on the offer part of the fax....how do you present this offer to your sellers without bodily harm coming to yourself?
Since lowball offers are a big thing nowadays...how are you handling them?
DON"T pull your hair out....a balding realtor does not sell more property than a nicely coiffed realtor!
But I am looking for your response!
