Accepting an Offer
Evaluating Offers with Strategy, Not Emotion
The highest offer isn’t always the strongest. Whether you’re selling a home or an investment property, what matters most is leverage and that includes the terms, the buyer’s qualifications, the closing timeline, and the ability to perform. I evaluate every offer through a strategic lens, helping you weigh price against contingencies, financing type, and closing risk. We don’t just go for flash we go for follow-through.
In Commercial and Residential Deals, Negotiation Is a Game of Leverage
In both markets, the negotiation phase is where real value is either protected or lost. I lead negotiations with facts, market insight, and unwavering advocacy for your position. Whether it’s a single buyer or a multi-offer scenario, I provide clear breakdowns and professional guidance to help you choose not just the best offer, but the smartest one.
The Offer, Earnest Money, and What Happens Next
Once terms are accepted, the buyer places their earnest money deposit, and option fee into escrow, solidifying their intent. From there, we move through inspections, financing, appraisals, and title review all on a tight timeline. Commercial deals may also include feasibility periods, environmental reviews, or rent roll verifications. I manage the process proactively, so you stay informed and protected at every phase.
Essentials for a Smooth Transaction
- Get it in writing. Verbal agreements don’t hold weight. I’ll make sure every term, counteroffer, and addendum are documented and signed.
- Honor the timeline. Contracts are full of critical deadlines missing one can put you in breach. I’ll keep you on track and ahead of the curve.
- Stay informed. I keep you updated, prepared, and ready for what’s next so you’re never caught off guard.
