Multiple offers, which one should you choose?  πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ Did you know that just because you received an offer $20,000 over your asking price, that that doesn’t necessarily mean that it is the better offer than the one that was only $10,000 over your asking price. Believe me, I want you to pocket the most amount of money πŸ’΅ for your house too. I understand why you may be a little confused by what I’m saying right now. I help sellers choose offers for very specific reasons and sometimes the offers they choose, didn’t have the highest price. Hi, I’m Natasha Carroll with Natasha Carroll Realty and I’ll break down π‘ π‘œπ‘šπ‘’ π‘œπ‘“ π‘‘β„Žπ‘’ π‘˜π‘’π‘¦ π‘‘β„Žπ‘–π‘›π‘”π‘  π‘‘π‘œ π‘‘β„Žπ‘–π‘›π‘˜ π‘Žπ‘π‘œπ‘’π‘‘ 𝑏𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 π‘‘β„Žπ‘Žπ‘‘ π‘œπ‘“π‘“π‘’π‘Ÿ π‘π‘Ÿπ‘–π‘π‘’, when you find yourself reviewing multiple offers. 

First on the list, the closing date πŸ“†, does that date match up with your desired timeframe? Or will you be homeless for a few weeks while you wait for your next house to close? How important is that date to you? What type of financing does the buyer have? Are they offering cash πŸ’΅ or are they getting a loan? Did you know the type of loan needs to be taken into account based upon the conditions of your home, and other contributing factors? Certain loan types have stricter appraisal requirements than others. Imagine, if you found yourself in a situation where you’re now required to make a $10,000 repair, or replacement, or the buyer lender says, “Nope, we’re not funding that loan.” Are they offering any additional down payment? If their appraisal value does not come in at the offer purchase price? In a hot πŸ”₯ market like this, everyone is offering over asking price these days to get a home. Does that mean that you will actually receive that price? Not if you potentially except the wrong offer, or you don’t counter out certain items in the contract. 

How about inspection πŸ” contingency? Most buyers were wanting an inspection on their home before moving in. Truthfully, it is a great way to protect themselves from unforeseen circumstances. Let’s just use the scenario of receiving an offer that is $20,000 over asking, and the buyer’s requesting their inspection, but you have another offer on the table that is $10,000 above asking, but they’re waving their inspection. Which means they are not having any inspections at all. Well, then that’s something for you to think about and truly consider. Because on the home that is having an inspection, you’re open to possibly the inspector finding issues that you didn’t know of or aware of, and then you and the buyer would possibly have to reenter negotiations or worse, they can actually walk away from the deal. 

Those are only a few things to think about when you’re reviewing multiple offers.
