The Power of Smart Negotiations — Harper Real Estate

Negotiation tip: Words matter.
When a second buyer asked what it would take to win, I didn’t throw out numbers — I simply said: “Send me your client’s best offer.”

Result?
First offer: below asking
Second offer: $150K OVER asking

That’s the power of smart negotiation.
