4 Ideas to Help You Get the Best Price on Your New Home


It's house hunting time! Whether or not this is your first time to purchase a home, there is no way you want to pay more than you should. In this article, we will go over 4 ideas to try/keep in mind when looking to get the best deal on your new home!

1. Days on the Market(DOM): Homes lingering on the market for over 30 days could be your golden ticket! Sellers are often more flexible, slashing prices by 5-10% at 30 days, and possibly more after 45-60 days. Don't overlook these gems—find a pro and possibly negotiate 2-3% off every 15 days!

2. Be a Rebounder - A contingent home is like a hidden treasure—already claimed, but still up for grabs! Beat the odds with a backup offer. While others scroll past, you could swoop in for the win! Don't miss out—secure your spot in line and turn potential into your dream home!

3. Think Golf, Not Basketball - Just like in golf, it's not always about the highest number. Sellers value flexibility as much as cash. Offering extra time or flexibility could be your secret to clinching the deal, even if your offer isn't the highest on the table!

4. Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder - Unlock your dream neighborhood with a little DIY magic! Don't let imperfections deter you—see them as opportunities. Sure, living next to a freeway or in a historic home might not be ideal, but a fixer-upper could be your ticket to the perfect location. Start with vision, add a dash of TLC, and in just 5 years, watch your dream home come to life
