Determining an Asking Price

There are many factors that impact the list price of a home: location, condition, amenities, supply and demand, as well as local and global market conditions. Your agent can provide a thorough market analysis of your home so you will be able to come up with a realistic, competitive pricing strategy.

Receiving Offers

When an offer is presented, your agent will help you navigate the best possible price and terms. The offer is presented, your agent will help you negotiate the best possible price and terms. The offer procedure and paperwork vary by region, and your agent will walk you through what is needed such as ensuring the buyer is pre-qualified. Your agent will promote your interests and assist in developing a clear and binding transaction

Typically, an offer is initiated through the buyer's agent and includes the following information:

* The amount the buyer is willing to pay

* Mortgage amount, if any

* Desired closing and occupancy dates

* Contingencies, such as mortgage commitment and requested inspections, such as termite, pest, radon, water portability, well, lead, septic and oil tank

* Any personal property specifically included or excluded

If the offer is not acceptable to you, further negotiations may be necessary to reach terms that are agreeable to you and the buyer. Because counteroffers are common (any change in the offer can be considered a counteroffer) it is important that you remain in close contact with your agent during the negotiation process so that proposed changes can be reviewed and responded to quickly.

Accepting an Offer

Once you have an accepted offer, you will go to contract. Your agent will be an invaluable asset in this stage and will work closely with you on writing the contract, determining down payments required, managing inspection contingency dates and other aspects of the transaction. In some areas of the U.S., a lawyer may be required or advisable, so where applicable, the seller will work through their lawyer to negotiate the sales contract once an offer has been accepted.

What to Expect at Closing

Closing is a formal process where all parties sign the necessary paperwork needed to complete the sale and the title to the property is transferred from you to the buyer; they receive the house keys, and you receive payment for the house. From the amount credited to you, the title representative subtracts the funds to pay off the existing mortgage and other transaction costs. Deeds, loan papers and other documents are prepared, signed and ultimately filed with the local property record office.

Intelligent pricing is one of the most critical aspects of a successful sale, no matter how perfect your home is, you'll miss our on potential buyers if its price doesn't align with similar properties selling in your market.
