Sales is all about creating urgency.

@Ryan Billingsley This sounds like a great deal.I would give him a counter offer, and with it, instill some sense of urgency and let him know that you are not as motivated as all the other motivated investor out there scrambling to find a good deal.Let him know that there are other investors that are coming to make offers this week.Find out what his highest and best offer is, and see how quickly he can close.$6500 is certainly a good profit, and so is $12,000!

I later experiented with the dollar amount of the downpayment between $3,000 to $7,500 and determined $5,000 brought in the best type of lead for me to work with.If you are going to do signs create a "MUST xyz", call to urgency.
