When do you call it quits when you are trying to keep a deal together???? I'm presently in a transaction where the buyer and seller have dug their heels into the ground and are not budging. The buyers agent and I are trying to keep both parties moving forward. But how long do we have to keep trying.
The seller is contributing $4500 towards closing costs and the buyer wants/needs $6500. My agency is willing to absorb $1,000 and I'm waiting to hear if the buyers agency will do the same. There are issues from the home inspection that need to be addressed, and the seller is will to do them all, but only up to a cetain price. My broker and I are absorbing the difference on this.
This home we have listed has no appliances... and the price reflects this. Now the buyer wants to know if the seller will put these in. The seller has firmly drawn the line in the sand and is not willing to do anything more. Now do we (our agency) put in the appliances to make this deal work? But why...I'm thinking NOT. We would be walking away from this deal with nothing... and possible in the red.
When would you call it quits?
