Untangling the Bidding War: A Buyer's & Seller's Perspectives
Top Agent Magazine|Denver
In a competitive marketplace, bidding wars become the norm. While this may put sellers in an excellent position to recoup on their investment, it can push buyers beyond their budgets and test their temperaments in the process.
Untangling the Bidding War: A Buyer's & Seller's Perspectives

As an agent, how do you navigate both sides of the coin? After all, you want to net the best results for your client regardless of which side of the closing table they're on. To fortify your approach to a heated bidding war, here are a few ideas and insights to better clue you in on the perspectives of buyers and sellers alike.

Buyer's Perspective: Emotions Running High? Channel it.

When the market is booming, buyers feel the pressure especially when affordable inventory is limited. This can create stress, feelings of hopelessness, and impulsivity. As an agent, how do you channel this emotional energy into something positive? Consider asking buyers to put those anxieties and high hopes onto paper. Have buyers outline who they are, why they're inspired to buy a home at this juncture in their lives, and how they see their lives unfolding once they become a homeowner (or repeat homeowner). Think of it as a letter of intent. Buyers benefit from taking abstract fears and dreams and articulating them on paper. Likewise, this document can serve as a valuable tool during a bidding war. Letters like these can help sellers with multiple offers make a personal, emotional connection with a particular buyer.

Sellers Perspective: Manage expectations.
