“Was it good?” my wife asked as I tried to lift my bloated gut from the dining room table. My eyes were clearly bigger than my stomach. I felt like I had gained 10 pounds. I was completely stuffed and ready to take a nap.
“It was very good,” I replied. “You outdid yourself.”
She smiled and started to clear the table. Though the living room couch and my favorite blanket were calling my name, I jumped in to help her. After we finally got all the dishes to the kitchen, she filled the sink with water, added a little soap and started washing them. I grabbed a towel and asked, “Can I dry the dishes?”
She passed out. (Okay, not really.)
But you get the point. Some offers are no-brainers. Others are a little more difficult to get accepted. What I want to talk to you about today is how to get sellers to accept your offer when you expect multiple Purchase and Sale Agreements (PSAs) on an apartment building.
If you find a property that’s not on the market and you’re negotiating with the seller, it’s not so difficult to get an offer accepted. That’s because you’re the only game in town and you have time to negotiate without the fear of someone else coming in to rip the carpet out from under you.
