How To Sweeten Low Cash Offers on House

How To Sweeten Low Cash Offers on House

I have a house in Brooklyn.  The family is selling it, but the cash offers are low.  It is valued around 700K, but the cash we are getting is around 500s.  How can we sweeten the deal?  Are there any contingencies or other "sweeteners" we can ask for in cash to help family move, or make up for the low offers.  They don't need to be at 700k, but they need to be in the 600s so fam can walk away with something, or get something else to make up for the deficit.  Any info is appreciated!

    I would tell the cash buyers that you need to be in the 600s and maybe one of those cash buyers will come up to the 600s and you can get it done!

    I like being up front with the cash buyers and let them know what you're dealing with so they can make it work.
