Wouldn't it be nice to command full price for your home? The feeling that everybody want's it! You are the sole envy of every seller north of the equater. Even Donald Trump even want's to know.. "How'd they do that?" We all love our homes. We all think that every upgrade we performed is pristine. Just like our kids are the cutest and most unique kids in their class.
A multiple offer situtation on your home can also be your worst nightmare. Not just for you, but for your listing agent. Often sellers become "offer proud." They think because 2 people want to acquire their property that they are now in a position of unimaginable & incredible strength. A place where the seller can push back and make "high" demands. If a seller isn't careful they and their agent can be left with two things. Jack & that squishy brown stuff dogs leave behind on your front lawn. All of a sudden the music stops. The excitement has now evolved to despair.
In today's world buyers have a little bit of a chip on their shoulder, too. In fact, they've got over 60,000 properties on our MLS. Life for the buyer can and will go on. The seller will be left grumbling and saying things like... "I'm not giving my home away, sorry Charlie, ain't gonna happen!"
Some buyer's prefer to walk away...... {completely} rather than get in a "bidding war." Believe it. You should counter offer your multiple offers carefully. This is where experience, competence and awesomeness comes in. I am the latter. <-- making sure you're paying attention.
