I have a lot of people asking me what they should do with early offers on their home. Should they take them? Should they ignore them? What are you to do?

Here's what we know statistically: when a home is priced right and in good condition, it has a 40% chance of selling in less than 30 days. In the following 60 days, the home then only has a 16% chance to sell.


Sometimes sellers will get nervous and think that they've sold their home too quickly and for not enough money. This is not the reality of the situation. What happens is that buyers jump when they see a good home come onto the market.

If you get an offer quickly, its only a validation that you've priced your home well and that it is a desirable property.

If you're having trouble choosing from multiple offers on your home, please don't hesitate to give us a call. I'd love to consult with you and help you to make the best decision possible.
