How to Properly Negotiate the Price of Your Home

Keep Your Mouth Shut……..

O.K. that may sound mean.  What do I mean by that.  Well over the last 8 years being one of the top producers selling in Centralia, WA 98531 and Chehalis, WA 98532, I can’t tell you all of the craziness I’ve seen in this industry.   Make sure you let my team and I do the negotiating for you.  You can’t imagine the cats that you can let out of the bag when you open that beautiful mouth of yours to talk to the buyer or buyer’s agent.  You may think you’re being nice, but you never know that what you may say, could actually kill the deal or cost you an enormous amount of money.

Negotiations are another key factor when selling.  So you want to hire an agent who has had extensive training in negotiations.  I’m a Master Certified Negotiation Expert, that means I’ve been taught more than the average bear when it comes to negotiating.  You wouldn’t believe that certain things matter when negotiating, like the type of words that you say, or your tone, or how quickly you answer a question, you wouldn’t know  how any one of those things can drastically affect the outcome of negotiations unless  you’ve had extensive training on how to properly negotiate.  And the good news is, we have. 

Think about this, if the average agent in Washington only sells six homes a year, are they really able to negotiate on your behalf to the best of their ability?  I’ve personally sold hundreds of homes, so negotiating and market knowledge is one of my specialties, and it assures that we can best serve and negotiate on behalf of you.  It’s scary to think that someone with such little experience can be negotiating on your largest investment.  Bottom line, you’ve got to be careful.  Not all agents are created equal. Just because your brothers, sisters, aunt, got her real estate license a year ago and is going to be discounting their commission, watch out, that % of savings that you think you are getting can cost you thousands and thousands of dollars due to lack of experience, knowledge and know how.

It’s kind of like that awesome “thing” I’ll let you fill in the blank, that you got at the discount store that seemed like such a great deal at the time, ended up falling apart and costing you so much headache.  And that’s just a thing, imagine your home sale falling apart, it’s your most valued asset.   So don’t leave the biggest investment of your entire life in the hands of someone who only sells a few houses a year. Go to an expert. Go to somebody who’s going to expose it to the masses, who’s an expert at their game, who takes their job seriously, who does it full time, and is an experienced negotiator.
