Seller Getting a Contract

Hi Everyone,

I just received an offer on a listing that has been on the market for several months. The sellers have been anxious to get an offer as they are wanting to move closer to their children. So every week I would call them with updates on the market and feedback from showings and they are always asking, where is an offer, why don't we have on offer.  so today we get an offer!!!! I never like to go over an offer over the phone, so I call them, tell them they got an offer and ask what is a good time today for me to come over and discuss this offer. They immediately ask what the offer is. and start saying "I am not selling my house lower that $$$$, and it better be a good one etc.  I said I will discuss all the terms personally when I get there. It always amazes me that sellers are so vulnerable and anxious while waiting for an offer. and the minute they do get one, they become demanding if you will and that they better get what they want, and before they get an offer they are saying "just any offer would be good" anyways. we will see how this goes, and with all offers, buyer these days are coming in low to see what they can get and we just need to adjust the contract to meet the fair market value, not just what buyers are wanting to get a deal.  Real Estate is such a great career because everyday is different. and negotiating contract is one of my favorite thing to do, getting the best price for my sellers is my ultimate goal and now I need to go and negotiate this one.


Make it a great day!
