How to Offer and Negotiate on House Price

Sometimes the house of your dreams is just over your budget and you're left wondering if you can make a cheeky offer. And other times the amount of work a property requires means the seller is asking for far too much money.   Negotiating a house price is often a necessary step in the home buying process. But, agreeing on the terms of purchase with an offer lower than the seller's expectation is where things can get complicated.   If you want to learn how to negotiate a house price, join property expert Phil Spencer and co-host Chris Ducker on episode 5 of the Move iQ podcast, where they discuss some of the potential ways you can 'haggle' for a lower price.   Listen in to find out: What you need to consider before submitting an offer Why you shouldn't let your heart rule when it comes to buying a home How to come to your own conclusion about a property's value How to know if you should negotiate on price or submit the asking price Using the existing property market to help determine your negotiation Advice when it comes to submitting your first offer Dealing with rejected and counter offers   Thank you for listening to the Move iQ podcast!
