— but somewhat financially troubled — person you’ve ever met, do not let that dissuade you from your goal of getting a fair deal. Stay on your toes, even if the sale is going along quickly and painlessly. Sometimes, it’s an indication that the buyers might back out of the deal. There needs to be a certain amount of discussion by both parties to keep the buyer from jumping ship or, on your part, feeling seller’s remorse. You may sense afterward that the buyer would have been willing to pay more for your home.
DON'T LET YOUR EGO GET THE BEST OF YOU
During negotiations, there may be a time when you think of all the labor and time you have invested into getting your home sold. Hours upon hours spent cleaning, staging, showing, and communicating may suddenly flood your mind. You may wonder if it was in vain when faced with buyers who are critical, demanding, or rude. Retaliation in a like manner can break a deal, so learn to deal with potential homebuyers objectively. Don’t let your ego get in the way of a good deal.
