Accepting an Offer

Price Is Not the Only Variable

The highest offer is not always the best offer. Terms, contingencies, financing strength, and buyer reliability all factor into which offer truly serves your interests. Our team evaluates every proposal with a complete picture in mind, not just the number on the page.

Negotiating With Purpose

We approach every negotiation with integrity and a clear commitment to your priorities. Our goal is to secure the best outcome for you while keeping qualified buyers engaged and the deal moving forward.

The Initial Agreement and Deposit

Once both parties reach agreement, you will sign the Purchase Agreement and the buyer will place a deposit into escrow. An escrow agent, either a title company or an attorney, serves as the neutral third party responsible for holding and distributing all funds through to the closing date.

A few important practices to keep the process on track:

• Keep written records of everything including counter-offers, verbal agreements, and addendums, and ensure both parties sign all documentation. We will draft and provide copies for all relevant parties
• Stay on schedule by meeting all contingency deadlines outlined in the Purchase Agreement. Staying on track keeps the process clean, reduces stress, and ensures neither party falls into breach of contract
