We Had A Wonderful Experience
"We had a wonderful experience at a very stressful time. We were given a chance to concentrate on the important issues while Linda handled the paperwork. Linda did an all-around outstanding job from technical to practical advice. Thank you for offering such a talented and hard-working agent in an era where that is out of fashion."
Margaret M. & Dan S., Washington, DC

Making An Offer >Evaluating the First Offer
Your dining room table is the scene of high drama. Your home has been listed for sale for six weeks, and finally, the first offer has come in. You are meeting with the agents, and are very excited until they mention the price--it is a lot less than you expected.
Before you feel offended, however, remember that the first offer is often just the beginning of a negotiating process. Your agent can help you weigh the good and bad points, evaluating the price in relationship to the terms or conditions of the sale. Sometimes an offer with a low price can look quite attractive once you understand all of the terms. If you are willing to make some compromises, the buyers may accept a counter offer that will give you more money. A lower price from highly qualified buyers may be better than one from people who may have difficulties with financing. Keep in mind that your first negotiated price is often your best price!
