Most buyers fight over the price. Smart buyers negotiate this instead. ๐
In Rockland County's market, the list price isn't the only number that matters, and the agents who know that are the ones getting their buyers the best deals.
Here's what's actually on the table:
๐ก Ask the seller to buy down your rate โ A lower rate saves you far more over 30 years than knocking $5K off the price ever will.
๐ฅ Ask for a repair credit instead of repairs โ Skip the back-and-forth. Get the money at closing and choose your own contractor.
๐๏ธ Ask "What stays with the home?" โ Appliances, furniture, fixtures. That's instant value you never have to shop for.
๐ง Shop multiple lenders โ Banks, credit unions, mortgage companies all quote differently for the same loan. A little homework now can save you thousands.
Everything is negotiable, the price, the credits, the cost to borrow. But only if you know to ask.
That's exactly what I'm here for.
