Mistakes
That Reduce Your Negotiating Power
Remember, you don't get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate: When you begin your home finding
process, there is important info that you should not disclose to the
on-site agent in a new community or the listing agent on a resale
property.
- Do not tell your specific possession
date.
- Do not share how much money you plan
to put down on the home.
- Do not tell the seller's agent the
amount the mortgage lender has approved for you.
- Do not offer to pay closing costs or
discount points.
- Do not disclose your benefits
package if being transferred.
- Do not show emotions over the
features you like.
- Do not disclose your newness to the
area and lack of knowledge of current market values
- Do not disclose what items you want
included in offer.
- Do not discuss your reaction to a
counter offer.
