If the sellers are not pleased with your offer, they may turn it down outright or give a counteroffer. So, let’s say that the sellers agree with all of the terms in your offer except for the price. The sellers may send your offer back with your price marked out and suggest a higher price. Or, I will give a different scenario. Let’s instead say that the sellers are pleased with your offer overall, but you asked for them to do too much – like asking for a long list of repairs to be made, making a lower offer on the price, and requesting that you sell the house you are living in now before buying the sellers’ house.

If you are a buyer, how do you increase the chances that your offer will be the acceptable one?
One of the things that unsuccessful sellers like to do, after their listing agreement has expired, is switch brokerages. It seems like a rational action. After all if you request a service that is not met, in most other instances in life, you will go elsewhere in an attempt to meet your needs. I think working for Re/Max, I get more than my share of the second try home sellers. Re/Max's national sales campaign really gets the name out there, and often after a local agency has failed to sell the home, the sellers say to themselves, 'Lets go with a big name, and see what happens.'
