In today’s competitive housing market, strong negotiation skills can truly make or break a deal. I’ve closed several challenging deals by staying calm, persistent, and well-prepared every step of the way. Here are a few of my go-to negotiation tactics for closing high-value real estate deals:
Deep market research: Knowing the latest comps and neighborhood trends gives me a strategic advantage.
Active listening: Understanding what the other party really wants and their concerns helps me craft creative, win-win solutions.
Creative deal structuring: Sometimes it’s not just about price. Flexible closing dates, seller credits, or including appliances can be the difference-maker.
The power of silence: Giving the other side time to sit with an offer or counteroffer often encourages them to move closer to your position.
