Selling your home
Negotiation on your side of the table
Getting an offer is the start, not the finish. What you actually net depends on how the offer — and everything after it — gets negotiated. That's the part I take seriously on your behalf.
The highest offer isn't always the best one
Price is only one line in an offer. Financing type, the due diligence and earnest money amounts, closing date, contingencies, and what the buyer is asking you to pay or fix all change what you truly walk away with. I read every offer for what it's really worth — not just the number on top — and tell you straight which terms are strong and which are soft.
Where deals get won and lost
- Multiple offers. When there's competition, how you respond decides whether you capture it or scare it off.
- Inspection requests. After the buyer inspects, there's usually a round of repair or credit requests. This is pure negotiation, and it's where an unrepresented seller gives away the most.
- Appraisal gaps. If the appraisal comes in under the contract price, there are several ways to handle it — and which one you choose matters.
North Carolina's due diligence period
NC contracts run on a due diligence period, and the fees and timeline around it are negotiable levers that protect you. I make sure they're structured in your favor — see NC due diligence & closing costs for how that works.
Calm, direct, and on your side
My job here is simple: protect your bottom line and your timeline, keep the deal together when it gets tense, and never let you give up something you didn't have to. You'll always know where things stand and why I'm recommending what I am.
