I am currently helping a friend with a negotiation.
They are negotiating a rather large deal on a new home. They found a home that they really love. They toured it yesterday for the 3rd time and they are absolutely infatuated with the possibility of living there one day.
Knowing that I have had a little experience in this arena of negotiating, they came to me asking what they should do.
I told them to low ball their offer. Offer something on the lower end of the spectrum.
This was my recommendation after reviewing several details of the potential deal.
I understand that they really want the house, but you cannot let enthusiasm and optimism get in the way of getting a good deal.
Overpaying for a house is a HORRIBLE idea. While I do not consider buying a house to be a good investment in most cases such as this one, I do consider it to be important to treat it similarly to an investment.
Just like any other investment, getting a good buy price will always make your life easier in the end.
Allow me to run you through a few scenarios to illustrate this point:
If the real estate market drops and you need to get out of your house for whatever reason and sell it as soon as possible --> having a good buy price will allow you to lose less money when trying to exist quickly.
If the real estate market goes up and you want to exit your house, knowing you can make a solid profit --> having bought the house at a good price will allow you to make a substantial profit.
Regardless of the market, you have to liquidate quickly. Having bought in at a low price, you can accept a much lower price than you would be able to had you entered in at the asking price.
They are now in counter negotiations and are trying to get the best price possible.
I told them to stand firm. Always stand firm and negotiate from a place of power.
Negotiate by being able to walk away from the table. There are a million houses for sale, don't get too attached to this one.
By being detached, you can make rational decisions and you can stand your ground! Have the means to walk away from the table and you will win the negotiation in the end!
Nice
