• He has already relocated to another city. • The home and upkeep have been stressing him out. • He is super busy at work and doesn’t have the emotional energy to deal with another problem. A buyer wants to buy his home. This is the perfect home for her. She has been looking for a home just like this for a long time. Therefore, the buyer is highly motivated to buy this home. In fact, her husband is scared that if they negotiate too hard, they will lose this house! This buyer is an incredible negotiator. She’s cool and collected. First, she gathers all the facts. She finds out the home hasn’t been shown in two months. Then, she discovers the seller has already moved. She looks the seller up on Facebook and stumbles across a rather revealing Facebook post. The seller vented about real estate and how badly he wants to sell the house. Now, let’s ask ourselves a question. Who do you think is going to win this negotiation? Yep. The buyer. Both parties are motivated, but one did a better job at negotiating. As a result, she wins! She buys the home for $43,000 less than the fair market value.
