ACCEPTING AN OFFER THE RIGHT WAY

The Highest Price Is Not Always the Best Offer

When offers start coming in, price is only part of the picture. Terms, contingencies, buyer qualifications, and closing timelines all influence the real value of any offer on the table. We evaluate every proposal thoroughly and guide you toward the offer that best serves your goals, not just the one with the biggest number.

Negotiating With Discipline and Integrity

We negotiate contracts with the same discipline and commitment we bring to everything else. Our clients come first, and we approach every negotiation with a clear strategy to protect your position while keeping the transaction moving forward.

The Initial Agreement and Deposit

Once you and the buyer reach an agreement, both parties sign the Purchase Agreement and the buyer deposits funds into escrow. The escrow agent, either a title company or attorney, acts as a neutral third party responsible for holding, receiving, and distributing all funds until closing.

A few important practices to protect the process:

• Keep written records of everything. Counter-offers, verbal agreements, and addendums all need to be documented and signed by both parties. We handle the drafting and ensure both sides have copies.
• Stay on schedule. The Purchase Agreement outlines a timeline for completing contingencies. Meeting those deadlines protects everyone and keeps the transaction on track. We monitor every milestone and prepare you for what is coming next.
