Make An Offer
- Your real estate agent will assist you in making an offer, which will include the following information:
- Complete legal description of the property
- Amount of earnest money
- Down payment and financing details
- Proposed move-in date
- Price you are offering
- Proposed closing date
- Length of time the offer is valid
- Details of the deal
- Remember that a contract is not final until buyer and seller agree to all terms, and the contract is signed.
- Unless you have a buyer's agent, remember that the agent works for the seller.
- Listen to your real estate agent's advice, but the final decision is yours.
- By the time you're ready to make an offer, you should have a good idea of what the home is worth.
- Be prepared for give-and-take negotiation, which is very common when buying a home. The buyer and seller may often go back and forth until they can agree on a price.
