QUESTION:  

“We just got our first offer on our house, but it’s too low.  Should we wait for a better  offer?”

ANSWER: 

Dear Readers:

“If you take the first offer too lightly, you may regret it later. Your Realtor can draft a counter-offer with a price and terms  acceptable to you. You can’t assume that the next offer will be better. Often, the first buyer is the best buyer, because the home is most saleable during the beginning of the listing period. The price buyers are willing to pay diminishes the longer the house is for sale. To protect our sellers, we recommend pricing the house competitively from the start. Duesler Realty House can provide a seller’s market report to determine the best price for your home!”
