A real estate purchase contract is a legally binding contract signed by home buyers and sellers and confirms their agreement to specific terms. Essential provisions in the contract include:

• Purchase price

• Earnest money deposit

• Contingencies (mortgage, inspection, appraisal, etc.)

• Settlement/Closing date

• Possession date

• Escrow

We begin our negotiations with a win-win perspective. Our intent is to create and maintain a positive environment to achieve the mutual goal of buyers and sellers, which is a successful closing! The key to an effective negotiation is to manage communication, analyze motivation, provide data and take a proactive stance to positively influence the outcome and avoid an adversarial situation.

Our approach is to ask questions to learn what will satisfy the needs of each party to the transaction. Our goal is to build trust between brokers, sellers and buyers, and to carefully guide the discussion toward common ground by identifying benefits and conflicts to work toward a mutually respectful compromise. We advocate for our clients best interest by focusing on solutions, not problems!
