Tip of the Week: Hesitation Can Be Costly

Question: I’ve just put my home up for sale. The very first prospect offered to buy it at the asking price. Should I raise the price or accept his offer?



Answer: Once you put your house on the market, you have to make up your mind to sell when the right offer comes. The right offer may be your FIRST offer. If you turn it down, you may never get another as good. The best prospects usually show up early. However, the offer should be a written one – the only kind that has any real significance and be accompanied by “earnest” money. Never take your property off the market on a verbal promise.
