Worst case? They say no.
Best case? You knock $5K–$10K off the purchase price.
In my experience, 9 out of 10 times you can get a price drop.
Why? Once sellers are in contract, their mindset is already locked into getting the deal done.
And if they don’t want to budge? You can always stick with the original purchase price, you lose nothing.
The key:
- Have a reason for why you need the price drop.
- Have another reason ready for why you can still stick with the original price if they push back.
As long as you have a reason, you’ll be fine.
Do this consistently and it will and make you tens of thousands of dollars every year.
