🏡 Stop negotiating the wrong things.

Most buyers focus on price — but that’s not where the real money is made. Here’s what smart buyers negotiate instead:

✅ Ask for a repair credit — cash in your pocket at closing
✅ Ask what stays — furniture & fixtures are fair game
✅ Shop multiple lenders — one quote is never enough
✅ Negotiate the credits, the terms, even the cost to borrow

Everything is negotiable when you have the right agent in your corner. 💪
