Danger of Passing on an Offer

True Story.....

Home priced at $385,000 ....After 45 days offer comes in at $365,000....Seller really wanted $375,000 and counters at $370,000

Buyer stalls...keeps looking and finds another house....Seller refuses to spend any $$ on house to improve badly outdated tile

Other buyers come by...but just do not like tile and do not want to deal with an allowance....same floor plan sells in neighborhood (lesser location)

House sits on market for 2 years

Seller finally sells for $342,000

Cost of passing on 1st offer?   $ 47,500    Do NOT let this happen to you!

 

Reduction in price                     $ 23,000

2 years of Taxes                      $ 18,000

2 years of Insurance                 $  1,800

Utilities                                    $   3,000

Lawn care & Maintenance           $   1,700
