Cape Cod Real Estate Buying Guide: Negotiating the
Offer
There are strategies for negotiating the purchase price of a home. When preparing an Offer to Purchase, we will educate you and provide you the information you need to begin the process.
Negotiations are completed in this manner, and we will:
Validate the listing information at Town Hall and Registry of Deeds. This research confirms the owner of record, accurate square footage, tax
assessment, title concerns, permit or sewage issues, building and set back requirements, future development plans and environmental issues. You are
provided with the information we collect.
-
Gather insight on the seller’s motive for the sale and uncover anything which weakens the seller’s position.
-
Provide you with any information that will enhance your bargaining position.
-
Negotiate the lowest possible price for you.
-
Adjust the Offer to Purchase in your favor.
-
Alert you when to back out of a deal and help you to do it without losing money.
-
Recommend a good and thorough Home Inspector and recommend further specific inspections if necessary.
-
Renegotiate after the home inspection. We work together with the Inspector to effectively address any issues or concerns.
