Every so often a seller caves and accepts an offer that makes sense to you as a buyer.
Got back with a listing agent today with the news that after my offer at 20% off listing price being accepted (verbally), I would need another 10% off, for a total of $140k off their asking price of $440k.
To my amazement, this too was accepted.
Now, of course we’ll need to inspect carefully, but in any case, so far so good.
It doesn’t happen often, but the more often you offer, the more often a great deal is accepted.
What’s your “threshold of amazement” when it comes to an offer you thought would never get accepted actually turning into a profitable deal?
