Received an offer- what should I be looking for??
Hi All,
My multi unit (4 units)attracts a lot of attention from buyers even though it’s not on the market. One buyer in particular has really been hounding me ( a real estate agent) I told him what the minimum amount I would sell for is and to my surprise he emailed me a written offer. I don’t have an agent and have never sold a property before and have no idea what to look for. Additionally, the offer included a reference to a $1k earnest money deposit but its less than a 1/2 of a percent of the purchase price which seems really low. And it’s sight unseen. I’m not sure if I should take this seriously or not and need to know what I should be looking for. Also they offered $25k below what I’m asking for. Should I ask for proof funds? Anything else?? Lisa
