TIP#27 OF 29 TIPS TO GET HOMES SOLD FAST AND FOR TOP DOLLAR
-TIP#27 DON'T TAKE LOWBALL OFFERS TOO SERIOUSLY.An unacceptably low offer should not be taken personally or seriously. Rather it should be countered, even with the slightest of reductions in your asking price. This let's a buyer know that their first offer isn't seen as a very serious one.--

TIP#26 OF 29 ESSENTIAL TIPS THAT GET HOMES SOLD FAST AND FOR TOP DOLLAR
--TIP#26 A REALLY LOW OFFER MAY MEAN THE BUYER IS NOT QUALIFIEDIf you feel the offer is inadequate, now would be a good time to make sure that the buyer has been qualified to carry a mortgage of the size this deal would require (if you have not learned this already). Ask how they arrived at their figure, then suggest their agent use comparables to establish what homes are going for in your neighborhood. -Bryan VogtStrano & Associates, Realtors® - GMAC Real Estate (618) 355-5824 --- O'Fallon IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleSwansea IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleBellville IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleScott AFB PCS Relocation--- Labels: comparables, offer, qualify

TIP#23 OF 29 ESSENTIAL TIPS TO GET HOMES SOLD FAST AND FOR TOP DOLLAR
--TIP #23 DON'T MOVE OUT BEFORE YOU SELLStudies have shown that it is more difficult to sell a home that is vacant- it looks forelorn, forgotten, simply not appealing.

If you move, you are also telling buyer that you have a new home and are probably motivated to sell.- Bryan VogtStrano & Associates, Realtors® - GMAC Real Estate (618) 355-5824 --- O'Fallon IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleSwansea IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleBellville IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleScott AFB PCS Relocation---

TIP# 19 OF ESSENTIAL TIPS TO GET YOUR HOME SOLD FAST AND FOR TOP DOLLAR
-TIP #19 KNOW YOUR BUYERIn the negotiation process, your objective is to control the pace and set the duration and the better you know your buyer, the more easily you can maintain control. As a rule, buyers want the best property they can afford for the least amount of money but knowing specifically what motivates your buyer enables you to negitiate more effectively. Maybe your buyer needs to move quickly, or the maximum amount he can spend is just a little below your asking price. Knowing this information puts you in a better bargaining position --Bryan VogtStrano & Associates, Realtors® - GMAC Real Estate (618) 355-5824 --- O'Fallon IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleSwansea IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleBellville IL Real Estate, Condos, Homes for SaleScott AFB PCS Relocation---
