Yesterday I was offered a premium new-build property in Liverpool.
The seller wanted a quick sale, so the asking price was already £10k below market value.
I negotiated further and secured an extra £15k reduction. £25k off market value, total.
So how did I do it? 🤔
This isn't haggling like it's a wet market stall. It comes down to one thing: being an educated property investor.
✅ I did my due diligence
✅ Researched comparables in the area
✅ Analysed the numbers
✅ Asked the right questions on the virtual meeting
That combination is what let me influence their decision and get my offer accepted.
A few hours later, I signed the reservation contract. Then I called my mortgage broker and booked a meeting for Monday to go through the offer.
This is proof: the right property education isn't just important. It's essential.
