CREN: Defending Your Price and Terms
Scott Cooper is certified in real estate negotiations, experienced in multiple offers, Power of Sale properties and carries the CREN designation which is only held by a handful of REALTORS® in Canada. The process of negotiation begins long before an offer is made. Creating trusting relationships with fellow REALTORS® so they will work with me and not against me is something I have been building for years. The next part of any negotiation is to express sincere thanks or gratitude to the Buyer and the Buyers representative. After all they have searched the entire market and have chosen your home over all the others and we appreciate that. Once we carefully review the offer we have received we will make notes and discuss all the pros and cons. Which items will work, not work and which ones can we either live with or use to our advantage. Carefully plotting these changes we will sign the offer back to the Buyer and their Representative. Attached to this sign back we will provide supporting documentation that supports our position along with a thank you letter. This process is about coming to a win win outcome and not a battle of egos.
commission | kəˈmi sh ən |
