What's More Important, Asking Price or Sales Incentives?

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Big Bear

Every seller is looking for a way to get their home sold in this market.  With only 1 out of every 15-20 Big Bear homes selling every month, it is understandable to want to try every possible strategy.

One question that comes up a lot is whether to offer sales incentives to help entice more showings and a buyer.  The most common types of these incentives include a buyer's agent bonus, raised selling commission, and the seller paying some closing costs for the buyer.

While offering sales incentives can help a property sell, it is not was causes the property to sell. It is putting the cart before the horse so to speak.

Here are some of my thoughts on this question.

Well done Tyler.  Getting this through so clients understand is important, like most of us, they see the bottom line number.
