Negotiation Ninja: Level Up Your Orange County Real Estate Game!

While it’s not quite a buyer’s market yet, buyers have a bit more room for negotiation these days. So, what does this mean for you? Whether you’re buying or selling in the competitive Orange County housing market, knowing what’s negotiable is key. Here’s a quick rundown to get you prepped!

Negotiation Points to Consider

  • The Price Tag: This is the big one! Buyers are feeling more confident about offering under asking price, especially with affordability concerns. Sellers need to be realistic and flexible.
  • Home Repairs: The inspection reveals issues? Buyers can request reasonable repairs from the seller. Alternatively, sellers might offer a price reduction or contribute towards closing costs.
  • Fixtures + Furnishings: Score a sweet deal by asking for appliances or furniture to stay with the house. Sellers can use this to sweeten the offer and avoid moving bulky items.
  • Closing Costs: Feeling the pinch? Buyers can negotiate with sellers to cover some or all of these costs, easing the financial burden.
  • Home Warranty: Want peace of mind? Buyers can request a home warranty, often a cost-effective perk for sellers as well.
  • Closing Date: Need a flexible move-in? Both sides can negotiate the closing date to accommodate their needs.
