Step 5. Making an offer
Your finances are in place. Your perfect home has been found. You’re ready to make an offer. Let the games begin. Because that’s what the process can feel like. You can almost guarantee your first offer will be refused. That’s part for the course. Then you’re into a negotiation, or a sealed bid. We’ve been part of thousands of negotiations. Our advice will help you stay calm and haggle smart. Even if your offer is agreed, nothing is binding until the contract is signed. To help you accelerate this highly sensitive phase, our team will quickly implement the following critical steps:
◉ Prepare a memorandum of sale
◉ Communicate the agreed price to all parties with a letter
