Step 03
Compare more than the offer price.
The strongest offer is not always the highest headline number. Sellers should compare net proceeds, timeline, contingencies, repairs, occupancy needs, and certainty.
| Item | What To Compare |
|---|---|
| Purchase price | Gross price, estimated closing costs, seller concessions, and final net proceeds. |
| Closing timeline | Whether the buyer can close in 7-14 days or match the seller's preferred timing. |
| Condition terms | As-is language, inspection rights, repair requests, and access expectations. |
| Certainty | Cash proof, earnest money, contingency risk, and likelihood of closing smoothly. |
