Multi-Offer in Real Estate - Part 2
We are staying in the multi-offer Montana real estate scene for part 2 of our series. We will look the levels of buyers and what each has for tools to purchase. From financed to cash buyers we will look at strategies for both sellers and buyers. The risk calculation metrics are explored in depth for both sides of a transaction. Its not always the highest price or the cleanest offer that is the best for the seller. All homes are a situation unto themselves. There are many facets to a mutually beneficial sale. It seems like a rowdy market right now from the outside, but calculating in a measured manner is a workflow to embrace once some light is shed on the modern Montana real estate market conditions.
