Negotiating with Homeowners.
Last weeks report posted a strong “original to sold” ratio with nearly ½
of the homes closing within 5% of the seller’s asking price. 4 of these
properties had a market time of 38 days and 2 of these sold at or above
the listing price. I’m getting the feeling that sellers are beginning to
realize that the market has changed and they need to change along
with it. By pricing their homes at or nearer the market they are more
likely to generate competitive interest. This is the kind of action that
will help keep our market strong. Business breeds business. I’m sure
that those who are continuing to purchase Real Estate in Tuolumne
County would like to see a return on their investment as soon as
possible and that will only happen if a there remains a healthy interest
in Sonora CA Real Estate.
When dealing with homeowners, even in a declining market, one has to
consider the possibility that the attachment they may have to their
homes will influence them when responding to your offer. Not
everyone is desperate to sell or motivated buy money. There have been
cases where some homeowners in good markets have sold their property
at below market value to a buyer whom they liked. At the opposite end,
a buyer can get off on the wrong foot by offering a sales price well
below current market value. As sellers begin to respond to the reality
that prices have eased and list their home accordingly, this advice may
seem more relevant. The homeowner will usually allow their Real Estate
Agent to let it be known that they are willing to deal and although it
never hurts to ask you may be running the risk of being shut out by an
offended seller. Patience is a key in negotiating and a more subtle tact
seems to be the best approach in this situation. Some may think this is
to soft an approach. I would disagree. Sonora CA Real Estate is unique.
Very few, if any properties are alike and if you find “The One”, taking a
hard line may cost you the home of your dreams. There’s no doubt,
saving money is good but jumping over dollar bills and future
enjoyment to scratch for a few nickels today make no sense to me. For
most people selling ones home is an emotional experience and a little
understanding can go a long way in this business.
