But does it surprise you to find out that sellers sometimes accept <em>lower offers<\/em> with <em>better terms<\/em>? That\u2019s because an offer on a home is about more than how much you\u2019re willing to pay.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your goal should be to craft an offer that gets you the home you want while respecting what the seller wants, too, and making the decision easy for everyone.

That\u2019s why it\u2019s more than just about money. An offer includes everything from when you&#8217;d expect the home to be vacant to how you plan to deal with any contingencies like a bad inspection or tricky financing. Remember: you\u2019re offering more than just money. You\u2019re making a promise to the current owner to give them what they want for the home they\u2019ve been in for years.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Know_your_future_home\"><\/span><strong>Know your future home<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Consider all the information about the market when crafting your offer. Recent sales in the neighborhood and an up-to-date understanding of the broader real estate market will give you an idea of what you should put in your offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start with these data<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Days on market.<\/strong> You can see how many days a property has been on the market right in the listing. The longer the time, generally the better for the buyer. Other buyers may question if the property has issues and shy away, leaving room for the seller to be grateful for any offer, even a lower one. Sometimes, investors or developers need to recoup their costs by sticking to a firm price, no matter if it takes longer. In that case, a lower price is less likely to be accepted.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>No other offers.<\/strong> If your offer is the only one on the table, you may be able to get a deal. But keep in mind that every seller is different, so patience and understanding are key. If the seller doesn\u2019t want to sell low, they might not sell at all. If we initially offer low and aren\u2019t accepted, we may be able to resubmit to meet in the middle. The key is to not go so low that we offend the seller and they won\u2019t negotiate with us.<\/li><li><strong>Recent home sales<\/strong>. If another home on the block was sold recently, that&#8217;s be an indicator for what to expect when it comes time to make an offer on the home you want to buy. Was the neighbor\u2019s home sold for over the list price? Was it on the market for a long time? Knowing this will give you insight and will help you build your strategy.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Offer_great_terms\"><\/span>Offer great terms<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of buying your home from the seller\u2019s point of view. You wouldn\u2019t want to have to re-list your home or be rushed out right after selling. Your offer should provide your seller with confidence and convenience. These are the most powerful terms you can offer in your purchase agreement:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Certainty.<\/strong> Sellers want to know for sure that the transaction will close. Otherwise, they&#8217;ll need to go through the cost and emotions of putting their home back on the market, which will also put a stigma on the property.  Making a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/cash-offer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Flyhomes Cash Offer <\/a>or Guaranteed Offer is a way to offer certainty.\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>A quick close. <\/strong>Shortening the timeline to offer a quick close lets the seller to move on with their lives sooner and helps ensure that the transaction won&#8217;t fall through. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/cash-offer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cash Offers<\/a> position you to offer this benefit by removing the seller from the equation <em>before<\/em> you finalize your financing.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/blog\/what-is-a-real-estate-contingency-short-answer-its-kryptonite\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Removing contingencies<\/a> is a strategy to fast track the closing timeline too.\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>Rentback.<\/strong> Rentback is when you agree to rent the home to the seller after you take title, so they have time to move out. This is a sign of respect to the seller because it honors that they\u2019re going through a stressful time while selling their home. Time and time again, we\u2019ve seen sellers choose the offer with rentback because they appreciate the flexibility.\u00a0<\/li><li><strong>Personal terms.<\/strong> Keep in mind that selling a home is emotional for the sellers, so they\u2019re likely to choose the buyer that makes it the easiest on them. Work with the listing agent to find out what\u2019s important to your particular seller. Often, sellers want to know that you\u2019re financially strong and that you have a personal connection to the home. In some situations, it\u2019s even a good idea to write a personal letter to the seller.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-unsplash-image wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"8727\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/flyhomes.com\/blog\/how-to-craft-a-strong-offer\/rgj1j8sdeay\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=2560&amp;h=1922\" data-orig-size=\"2560,1922\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Tierra Mallorca&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Shooting in my office&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;2019-06-14T09:28:26-04:00&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;Tierra Mallorca&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;white and red wooden house miniature on brown table&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Shooting in my office&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo by &lt;a href=&quot;https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@tierramallorca&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Tierra Mallorca&lt;\/a&gt; on &lt;a href=&quot;https:\/\/unsplash.com\/?utm_source=the-living-room&#038;utm_medium=referral&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Unsplash&lt;\/a&gt; &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=300&amp;h=225\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=1024&amp;h=769\" src=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&#038;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&#038;fm=jpg&#038;q=85&#038;fit=crop&#038;w=1024&#038;h=769\" alt=\"white and red wooden house miniature on brown table\" class=\"wp-image-8727\" width=\"1024\" height=\"769\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=300&amp;h=225 300w, https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=1024&amp;h=768 1024w, https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=150&amp;h=112 150w, https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=768&amp;h=576 768w, https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=1536&amp;h=1153 1536w, https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=2048&amp;h=1537 2048w, https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=610&amp;h=457 610w, https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1560518883-ce09059eeffa?ixid=MnwxNTIyNDV8MHwxfGFsbHx8fHx8fHx8fDE2Mzk0MzE4MTM&amp;ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;fm=jpg&amp;q=85&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=333&amp;h=250 333w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>You don&#8217;t necessarily need the highest offer to have the best offer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_make_an_offer\"><\/span>How to make an offer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now\u2019s the time to start putting all this information together, and putting it on paper. But how do you actually go about writing it? Your real estate agent should take care of the actual drafting, but you\u2019ll have a lot of input. Here\u2019s what you need to do at this stage:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Know your budget<\/strong>. You\u2019ll already have done most of this work in your financing process. But seeing it written out on paper could be a shock. Having a set maximum\u2014and being certain you can actually afford it\u2014is your number one priority.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Decide which contingencies to include (and which to leave out)<\/strong>. Remember, you can write an offer that allows you to back out of the deal pending an inspection or a hiccup in your financing. There are a lot of contingencies you can include in your offer, but the question is: which ones can you do without? The fewer the contingencies, the stronger the offer.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Choose how much earnest money to offer<\/strong>. Think of earnest money as a deposit. It\u2019s the money you\u2019re offering to the seller along with the offer that they get to keep if the deal goes through. Usually buyers offer around 1-to -2% of the purchase price. But the more earnest money you offer, the more certain and committed you\u2019ll seem to the seller.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Must-haves_in_a_real_estate_offer_letter\"><\/span>Must-haves in a real estate offer letter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every offer letter is unique because every seller, buyer, and home is unique. But these are the best practices to know if you&#8217;re going to make a good first impression on the seller you&#8217;re trying to impress: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>A formal greeting<\/strong>. This is a big transaction that means a lot to both you and the seller. Leave the shorthand for emails. Address the seller by their name and any title associated with them.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Details<\/strong>. Tell the seller who you are. Any kids? Pets? Are you moving from out-of-state? Selling a home is personal to everyone involved. Let the seller know who you are.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Go over finances<\/strong>. Take this opportunity to remind the seller if you\u2019ve been pre-approved or, better yet, pre-underwritten for a home loan. Let the seller know how much earnest money you\u2019ll be putting down, too.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Thank the seller<\/strong>. Yes, this is a transaction. But it\u2019s also emotional and personal. They\u2019ve likely put a lot of work into the home. Thank the seller for their time and consideration.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"After_you_submit_the_offer\"><\/span>After you submit the offer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After you submit your offer, get ready to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/blog\/how-we-negotiate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> negotiate further on the price and terms<\/a> with the seller\u2019s listing agent. It\u2019s rare that a seller will provide a counter offer in such a competitive market since they have so many choices. But you never know. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/blog\/what-happens-on-offer-day\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read on<\/a> to find out what&#8217;s going on behind the scenes during that time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_conclusion\"><\/span>In conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Writing a real estate offer is about more than what you\u2019re willing to pay. You want to make a connection with the seller and reassure them that your offer is the most certain and convenient. There are plenty of ways to strengthen your offer in the way you handle contingencies, financing, and earnest money. This is the opportunity to put your best foot forward and promise the seller that their home and the sale will be in good hands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you make an offer more attractive?&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a lot of ways to make a real estate offer more attractive to a seller. Waive contingencies, offer more earnest money, or provide certainty through a pre-underwritten loan.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens when there are two offers on a home?&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This is almost guaranteed to happen in a competitive market. The seller will go over all the offers with their agent to determine which offer fits their needs best. Usually a seller will be able to choose one by the contingencies, earnest money, and financing of the buyer but some buyers need to prepare for a counter offer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a respectable offer on a home?&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure that whatever you\u2019re offering is similar to the other offers for similar homes in the area. For example, in some competitive markets, homes are selling for as much as 15% above the asking price. Depending on how much earnest money you\u2019re committing or what contingencies you plan to waive, you could make an offer closer to the asking price.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do sellers always pick the highest offer?&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>No, sellers don\u2019t always pick the highest offer. But sellers always pick the best offer. That means, they\u2019ll choose the offer that checks all the other boxes they\u2019re looking for, too. For example, sometimes it\u2019s more important for sellers to choose an offer with a pre-approved mortgage or with no contingencies, even if that offer is slightly less than the others.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I make an offer on a home that already has another offer?&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can make an offer on a home with multiple offers so long as you turn yours in by the offer review date. But if a house has moved to pending, that means the offer review date has passed and the seller has chosen an offer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<input
