Use this infographic to help clients learn these eight important hacks. Starting with the obvious, it's important to hire a good agent and real estate team. Furthermore, an agent will often have a team they work with to expedite deals seamlessly. Next, it's a good rule of thumb to always get three bids. This comes into play when selling or doing any home improvements. Three bids are a good idea so that competitive pricing can be obtained.
Another hack that may seem like a no-brainer but is a common mistake is to buy smart. Buying smart means buying with the future in mind and with realistic expectations. Also, buying smart means to purchase a home within your means. Under budget is best! Why? Because closing costs, repairs, and renovations always cost more than initially thought!
Our next hack leads us to listing a home at the right price. This is key because the wrong price can lengthen the selling process and make the situation much more stressful than it needs to be. As a seller, it's important to really consider the first offer, especially if they are willing to negotiate. The first offer typically means an excited buyer which is great for closing a deal that is a win-win.
Finally, be sure to be able to qualify for a loan easily or have creative back-up options and above all else, know when to walk away if a deal just isn't right for you.

In recent years, 98% of sellers received multiple offers when selling their home. This is exciting but can be overwhelming during an already stressful time! Multiple offers can be a lot to handle because selling and listing a home already comes with a lot of decisions. On average, it can be safe to say that sellers will usually go with the highest offer. This makes sense as who wouldn't want the most for their home? Careful sellers sometimes decide who to sell to based on the mortgage qualifications of the buyers. Looking to buy a home for less than the listing price or right at it? A cash offer is going to be the best bet there and even then only 30% of sellers tend to accept Sometimes, timing really is everything and low offers are acceptable because they are put in quickly and/or the buyer wants to move forward quickly in the escrow process.
The facts state that homes are getting more and more offers as time goes on. This is especially true in areas where inventory is low! Prepare clients ahead of time to lessen the pressure. Agents will guide their clients through multiple offers to find the best one for the situation at hand! It is important to look at and evaluate all offers while making a decision.
