Let the Buyer Beware can easily come back and bite you in a delicate spot—your pocketbook. Today, those selling a home or any Denison are expected to disclose all known material defects that are not readily apparent to the buyer. A Material Defect is usually a physical condition that would affect a buyer’s decision to purchase the home or what price to pay for the home. A leaky roof is definitely a Material Defect.

How Much Should You Offer?A good starting premise is that everyone wants to buy a home for thousands of dollars under market and when the time comes, to sell that home for thousands of dollars over market. This is basic human nature. When you are in the position of making an offer on Denison real estate property there are certain facts you need to know. Is it a Buyer’s Market or a Seller’s Market? In a Buyer’s Market conditions favor the buyer. Denison real estate listings are plentiful, home sales are declining or stagnant. In a Seller’s Market the opposite is true.

How do you know what kind of a market exists? Ask your REALTOR, read the newspaper, check online. When Denison Does Not SellHere is where your agent’s expertise and diligence comes into play. A top agent will consider what similar Denison have sold for within the last 3 to 6 months and compare those homes condition, features and location with your home. If there are no comparable sales in the area, which is often the case with custom or one-of-a-kind properties, the agent may suggest that you obtain a formal appraisal. A homeowner who must sell and sell quickly needs to price their Denison at or slightly below market to ensure a quick sale. A different homeowner may want to sell but has time and wants to get the top market price. These homeowners will often price the home slightly above current market prices and expect interested buyers to offer a lower amount to start the negotiation.

Bargains can always be found in the Denison market if a buyer is patient and willing to wait for a truly motivated seller. In economic downturns many people believe that foreclosures and short sales are automatically bargains when, in fact, this may not be the case.
