Negotiation

  • Request a written verification.
  • Review your offers; make sure to any requirement that might make the offer unacceptable, Discus your offers with your real estate broker or lawyer.
  • Consider the contract as a whole, work all cost down to the bottom line, a lower offer might be the most profitable.
  • Write on standard counter offer form, write down the things you only wish to change, such as price, amount you willing to pay for repairs as so forth.
  • Present your counter offer to the buyer; make sure to indicate the time in which an answer must be received.
  • Examine each counter offer (you might receive a counter offer to your counter offer) any terms not addressed in the counter offer would remain the same as the original offer.

Closing

The closing date is set during the negotiations; it is usually few weeks after accepting the deal. On the closing date that ownership is transferred from the seller to the buyer. Few things would happen during the closing:

    • The buyer (or the bank) would deliver the cheque (Cashier’s Check) for the balance owned on the purchase price.
    • The seller would sign the deed over to the buyer and hand him the key for the new place.
    • The title company would register the new deed with the local land registry office.
