Multiple Offers in Todays Real Estate Market

As the real estate market continues to shift we are entering a phase where multiple offers are once again becoming more common. However, it's important to keep in mind that this doesn't necessarily mean that the highest offer will always win out.

In fact, I had a recent experience in Sacramento that demonstrated that factors such as the location, neighborhood, and the type of property can all play a major role on a property receiving multiple offers. When a property has a desirable location or neighborhood you should now expect for that property to be receiving a lot of traffic and multiple offers.

As a result, I recognized the importance of creative offer structuring that takes into account what the seller is specifically looking for in a buyer. In this new market we are shifting into, it will be critical for buyers to work closely with their agents to brainstorm creative solutions and present offers that stand out from the rest.

Buyers should be prepared to make concessions in order to secure their dream property. Depending on the property don't expect to receive seller credits or other incentives as readily as you might in a less competitive market. However, if you are willing to be flexible and work with your agent to craft an attractive offer, you will greatly increase your chances of coming out on top in a multiple-bid situation.

Overall, the return of multiple offers to the real estate market is a sign of the increasing strength and vitality of the housing market. With the right strategies in place and a commitment to working closely with your agent, you can successfully navigate this exciting phase of the real estate world and find the property of you've been dreaming of.
