Why are we
selling? Don’t tell her about the
divorce, that makes it look like the price is negotiable. Just say he accepted a job transfer. That’s a good reason, yeah, say that.
The Buyer:
Price seems
high—for the location, I mean. It’s
definitely more than I’d like to pay. I
can afford to offer full-price, what with my inheritance, but they don’t need
to know that.
The Realtor:
My clients
are firm on price. It’s a good value,
well-maintained, nice neighborhood, good schools. Have you seen the comps? The price is where it should be. When are you writing the offer?

trifecta writing challenge: same story, 3 points of view
People can really screw up a good sale... just think what would happen if they opened their mouths BEFORE it was a done deal!
ReplyDeleteEveryone has something to lose. At least the realtor wants the deal done so they can get their bigger commission!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up to Trifecta this week. Love how you captured the lack of full disclosure on all three parties. Hope to see you back again soon.
ReplyDeleteI would hope that the buyer had the sense to get a buyer agent!! Otherwise, everything is subject to be told to the seller.
ReplyDeleteOh how I hate the negotiations thing ... could be that I'm one of those people who cannot hold back information regardless of the potential gain!
ReplyDeleteVery fun interpretation of the challenge.
I always love how every story has so many different perspectives!
