Trying to Get a Great "Deal" May Cost You The Home You want

By
Real Estate Agent with Florida Luxury Realty SL2337465

Trying to get a great "Deal" may cost you the home you want in our local New Port Richey market.  Working with both home sellers and home buyers, I get to hear and learn from both sides of the transaction.  Almost every home seller wants top dollar for their home and almost every buyer wants to get the home for less money or get a great "Deal".

When buying a home, you may want to keep in mind that not every home is overpriced. Not every seller is unrealistic and when your Realtor® shares information with you, you may want to listen to what they are saying.

Our New Port Richey Florida housing market is hot right now. We have far less homes for sale than we have buyers wanting to purchase a home. We are also seeing that over 90% of the homes sold have done so within 95-99% of the list price.  The market conditions are telling us that low ball offers on properly priced homes will only do one thing....cost you the home, cost you time, and in this escalating market...cost you money.

Exactly Michael! It's important for buyers to be working with an agent that they trust and who takes the time to educate them about the realities of the market.  And as agents, it's important that we set up realistic expectations for our buyers.  Great topic!

Thank You Mitch and Brenda for your comments.  An update on this specific buyer...we looked at a home he liked that was listed righ on the money and he asked "what would be a fair offer on this house"...my response...."Full Price". Its priced right, you want it, it has no where to go but up in value and equity.

This buyer is Under contract...FINALLY.
