It’s a brutal market for the average home buyer right now. But, if you are ready to take some risks and be persistent, you can get that offer accepted.
- Know the market trend between the list and sale price
- Put in an escalation clause up to your highest offer
- Put at least 5% down as a deposit
- Offer a non-refundable deposit to the seller
- Write the seller a brief and personalized “Love Letter”
- Waive the home inspection if you are financially able to
- Can’t do #6? Agree to not rescind or renegotiate for repairs costs under a set amount
- Cover some or all of the difference between the appraised value and the sale price
- Be flexible with the closing date and offer to rent back to the seller if needed
