Make an offer?
How to make an Offer When you have found a home you are interested in buying, I will walk you through the process of drafting an offer to purchase. Also, I will communicate the offer to the seller, or the seller's real estate agent for you. Some properties are in demand and you will not be the only interested party making an offer. This is where I will assist you in generating an offer that is reasonable and protects your interests using specified terms and conditions. An offer can be drafted with or without conditions. An offer without conditions is known as a firm offer and one with conditions is known as a conditional offer. A conditional offer represents the party with the placement of certain conditions on the purchase. Some of these conditions could be "subject to financing approval", "subject to the strata council allowing pets", "subject to the buyer's house selling", "subject to an approved home inspection", among many others. The seller may accept your initial offer, reject your offer, or present a counter-offer. The counter-offer may differ from your original offer in respect to price, conditions, the closing date or any other items. Offers can be countered back and forth between the parties until one of you accepts or rejects, ending the negotiations. There are many components of an offer that you should be aware of and understand. I will answer your questions and explain the entire process to you so that you are comfortable with the steps involved.
