| I kept an eye on the listing each week and noticed on Monday that the seller decided to lower their price to $224,900. I was convinced that the seller was finally "motivated to sell". I called the buyer and asked if they were still interested in the home, and they responded with a resounding YES!
This time I explained to our buyer that our offer needs to be bumped up a few points. After careful deliberation the buyers instructed me to offer $210,000. The offer was submitted to the other agent and the seller accepted the offer within 5 hours! The agent explained to me that the seller remembered what we mentioned to them 60 days ago, in regards to "How the market has changed" and it`s all about price, he realized that of he didn`t do something soon, his home would just remain on the market with no hope of selling and that wasn`t an option.
More and more we`re seeing this happen, it appears that many sellers are finally seeing the light!
