1. Don't ask for extras.

Keep your offer simple and "clean". If at all possible avoid the offer being contingent on the sale of another property or any other financial constraint.

2. Don't ask for seller closing cost help

or other concessions unless absolutely necessary, as doing so weakens your offer in the seller's eyes and when compared with other offers that are not asking for this help from the home seller.

3. Don’t ask for personal property.

A seller's market is the wrong time to ask for extras if you truly want the house - especially if the sale specifically excludes certain items from the sale, for example the washer & dryer, or maybe you are tempted to ask them to leave something else behind that would not normally go with the sale of the house. If you love the house, maybe you’d better skip those. Again, you are trying to make the strongest offer possible to be able to purchase your new home in Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax or another local Northern Virginia region.
