Repair Negotiations for Buyers
Gallery Realty works with you every step of the way. Negotiation skills and Taos real estate market knowledge are invaluable to you at this point. Our methods are designed to get the most in concessions for our buyer clients. However, there can be creative ways to word "Objection "documents and structure repair demands.
Remember, the seller can-refuse to do any repairs, or to pay for any. Our experience in these negotiations can make a difference in your costs of ownership. Let Gallery Realty of Taos help. Here are the steps once the inspection report is delivered:
- You decide what you can let go and what you want fixed.
- We prepare those items in an "Objections" form and submit to the Seller(s).
- The Seller(s) indicate what they will or will not do.
- You decide if their response is adequate or not.
Usually, there isn't a lot of back and forth here, as Sellers have an idea from the beginning what they're willing and able to do in the way of defect corrections. If their broker advised them properly, they have left a bit of wiggle room in their final price for repairs. If not, they usually decline to do anything. If they do have some wiggle room, then there can be some negotiation as to what's most important to you. This prioritizes your repair issues for the Seller, and they can place a dollar amount on them.
Remember that even the wording of the "Objections" document can be important. There are ways to indicate your acceptance of certain conditions, as well as those you want corrected. Gallery Realty of Taos works hard to craft objections in a way that invites a win-win solution for both parties. Let us tell you about it.
