Remind yourself that you want to sell your home for the best price and in the shortest time. Seller/buyer relationships come in all shapes and sizes, but no matter what ensues, selling your home is a legal, documented business transaction. Home selling has a way of sneaking into one’s emotions and triggering negative responses. If the buyer has an inflated ego and acts like a know-it-all, you need to make sure it does not affect you. On the flip side, if the buyer comes off as the sweetest, kindest — but somewhat financially troubled — person you’ve ever met, do not let that dissuade you from your goal of getting a fair deal and selling to the best buyer that meets your objectives.
DON'T LET YOUR EGO GE UR 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 want concessions. Understanding that your home is now a commodity on the market will help you learn to deal with potential homebuyers objectively. Don’t let your ego get in the way of a good offer that meets your objectives.
