It comes as no surprise that in todays mortgage market sellers who have well developed negotiation skills are ahead of the game.
There was a time when a buyer could name their price without fear and have buyers beat a path to their door. Those days, needless to say, are long gone.
Today, in most housing markets, buyers are thrilled to receive an offer. It's not unusual for a buyer to pay the closing costs and many sellers are throwing in a whole lot of creative incentives to get the deal done.
Frequently before there's any sort of Mortgage Quote the price of a home has been decreased. It's not unusual to have had the price drop a number of times before an offer comes.
Which brings us to negotiation skills. If a seller isn't thrilled with the terms it's easy to write a counter offer. There was a time that such a delay could cause the property to go to another buyer, but no more. In fact, it's not unusual to have a number of counter offers go back and forth in today's market.
The key to getting a deal done in todays housing market is sharpening your negotiation skills.
