DO a Final Check and Make It Official.
At the end, if you have found the right home for the right price for this stage of your life, then you and your agent need to ensure that you sign all relevant documents both carefully and completely. But before you do that, go over all the terms and conditions, as well as potential liabilities, with your agent to make sure everything is in order and what you’ve agreed upon. Signing the final documents seals the deal of that contract, which means no amendments without canceling it completely and renegotiating an entirely different deal and new contract with the seller. So please exercise caution here, and consult your agent for appropriate guidance.
Key Takeaway:
The negotiation process for buyers can seem complicated and challenging, especially after you’ve role-reversed from negotiating as a seller to buyer with different needs as you head into your golden years — your best years yet! But if you have a professional agent working with you, and you follow the above negotiation tips in this chapter, then you’ll be prepared to take your place at the bargaining table and position yourself to get a great deal for your new home.
