Offer Day
What happens when the offers come in.
Offer Day
Offer presentation is where marketing meets negotiation. A well-managed offer day maximizes your final sale price.
Introduction
Offers are presented in-person or virtually. We review each carefully, weighing price, conditions, deposit, and closing terms together.
Financing
An offer with a financing condition is weaker than a firm offer. Sometimes a lower firm offer beats a higher conditional one.
Disclosures
Sellers must disclose known material defects. Full honesty upfront prevents legal issues later.
Conditions
The fewer conditions, the stronger the offer. Common conditions: financing, inspection, and status certificate review.
Deposit Money
A larger deposit signals serious intent and gives the seller more confidence in the offer.
Extras
Flexible closing dates, rent-back arrangements, and keeping chattels can tip the balance between competing offers.
Closing
Once you accept an offer and any conditions are waived, the deal is firm. Your lawyer handles the rest.
