Q: How Do I Respond to a Low-ball Offer?

Friday, October 16, 2015

A: Let your agent know it is too low to warrant a counteroffer and that you are willing to negotiate but only once a more reasonable offer is made.  Ask the agent if the buyer was shown comparable market values of similar homes that have recently sold in your area; and ask if the buyer was ever properly qualified.  You do not have to settle for less if you are realistic about your chances of getting more.
