How Do I Make An Offer
- Annette will get you background
information on the area, market conditions, etc. to help you make an informed
buying decision.
-
Annette will communicate that they have an offer on the property
with the other agent. Sometimes there is more than one offer from different purchasers
at the same time. Annette will go over this situation and process
with you.
- Annette makes an appointment, at the very
earliest time, to present your Offer to the other parties. Annette negotiates the
offer on your behalf and represents you in your best interests.
- The seller may accept the offer, reject it, or countersign
the offer. A counter offer from the seller may be in reference to price, closing
date, or other variables.
The usual course of action is to countersign the offer. She will communicate with
you shortly after the presentation of the offer to go over the next step.
- The offer may go back and forth. You as a Purchaser
have the same three choices: to accept the counteroffer, to reject it, or to countersign
it again back to the Seller.
After there has been a "meeting of the
minds" and the price and terms have been agreed to, the next step is to contact
a home inspector to arrange for a home inspection (see - Choosing a Home Inspector)
and the lending institution (see - Choosing a Mortgage Lender) to arrange
for a full approval, including a bank appraisal of the property you purchased.
