Think the highest offer on a home always wins? Think again. Here are four reasons why a seller may not choose the highest offer:⁣
⁣
1. A buyer brings an all-cash offer: A buyer paying cash means there won’t be any financing pitfalls — and sellers LOVE avoiding pitfalls.⁣
2. A buyer can close ASAP: If a seller is antsy to get moving, an offer from a buyer who can close quickly will zoom to the top of the stack.⁣
3. A buyer shares their story. Sometimes buyers want sellers to know exactly why their house is “the one.” And sometimes, that’s all it takes for a seller to agree — especially if a seller has lived in the home for decades and their move is a sentimental one.⁣
4. A buyer doesn’t ask for contingencies. A common contingency is that a buyer must sell his or her home before buying. Sellers love when an offer is free and clear of cumbersome contingencies totally out of their control.⁣
⁣
It’s true — you want to go in with a strong offer price-wise, but that’s not the only thing sellers are looking for. Sellers want an offer that’s competitive, clean, AND close-to-asking price — the closer you can get to all three, the better!

It's time for the last secret in our 5 Secrets of a Successful Sale — secrets that together will help you sell your home without a hint of luck or wishful thinking.⁣
⁣
Before jumping to Secret #5, a quick review:⁣
⁣
Secret #1: It’s your kitchen that’ll sell your home.⁣
Secret #2: Declutter, depersonalize, and stage your home.⁣
Secret #3: Don't go overboard on upgrades.⁣
Secret #4: Find out what your home is worth, then shave 15-20% off the price to spark a bidding war.⁣
⁣
And last but certainly not least...⁣
⁣
Secret #5: Work with the right agent.⁣
⁣
The easiest way to hire the RIGHT agent? Knowing when they’re the WRONG agent. Here are few warning signs:⁣
⁣
• They have few references.⁣
• They aren’t familiar with your neighborhood.⁣
• They are new to town.⁣
• They are hard to reach by phone, email, or text.⁣
• They pressure you to make decisions before you feel ready.⁣
⁣
There are a ton of AMAZING agents out there. So don’t settle! Keep looking and asking around until you find an agent you “click” with — getting a successful sale (and maybe that pot o’ gold!) depends on it.⁣

Got the kitchen looking great?⁣
Got your home decluttered, depersonalized, and staged?⁣
Chatted with a realtor about worthwhile upgrades?⁣
⁣
Fist-bump! You’re SO ready for Secret #4 in our 5 Secrets to a Successful Sale! ⁣
⁣
While this one won’t require any elbow grease, it will take a tiny leap of faith. Secret #4 is all about pricing your home to sell — fast.⁣
⁣
Secret #4: Find out what your home is worth, then shave 15-20% off the price to *hopefully* spark a bidding war.⁣
⁣
Sound scary? That’s okay — I’m here to walk you through every step. Here’s why I love this pricing strategy: ⁣
⁣
• Pricing your home just below market value instantly gets buyers’ attention and motivates them to schedule a showing ASAP.⁣
• Once buyers see your home (and LOVE it), they’re more likely to put in an offer if they feel like they’re getting a deal.⁣
• When they realize there are other offers on the table, buyers tend to get competitive and are willing to increase their bid to land the home they want.⁣
⁣
With interest rates at historic lows and a lower than normal inventory, if you're looking to sell, you'll 100% be in the driver’s seat. ⁣
⁣
Curious what your home is worth in today’s market? I’d love to run the numbers for you — just drop me a message.⁣

Margo Borkin Real Estate

Checking in today to share Secret #3 in my 5 Secrets of a Successful Sale. A quick look back at the past two secrets:⁣
⁣
Secret #1: It’s your kitchen that’ll sell your home.⁣
Secret #2: Declutter, depersonalize, and stage your home. ⁣
⁣
And today…⁣
⁣
Secret #3: DON’T go overboard on upgrades.⁣
⁣
It’s a mistake I’ve seen too many times. ⁣
⁣
In an effort to get top dollar for their home, well-intentioned sellers take on major renovations without consulting a realtor first. Misinformed and assuming they’ll get every dollar back (and then some!), they go overboard on upgrades only to be disappointed at the closing table.⁣
⁣
And while there are upgrades worth doing prior to selling, they’re often quick fixes, not major renovations. ⁣
⁣
If you’re thinking about selling soon, reach out to a realtor who knows your neighborhood and can give you data on the upgrades that matter most to buyers in your area. ⁣
⁣
Not thinking about selling, but know someone who is? Pass this along and save them from the stress, headache, and expense of unnecessary upgrades.
