You may think that having to deal with multiple offers on your home is a
wonderful problem. After all, there are so many buyers clamoring to
purchase your property!
The challenge, however, is picking the best offer – and that isn't always the
one with the highest price.
Most offers come with conditions, such as "conditional on securing
appropriate financing" or "conditional on the sale of our current property."
You have to consider both the price and the conditions when choosing
which offer to accept.
There are other considerations, too. What if someone makes a great offer
on your home, but they don't have a pre-approved mortgage and they
haven’t put their current home on the market? That kind of offer is risky
because it is more likely than an unconditional offer to fall through.
So there's a lot to think about when you're in the seemingly enviable
position of dealing with multiple offers. How do you select the right one? The
answer is to have a good REALTOR® by your side to help you make the
right decision!
