1. Get your finances in order. The fact is, due to stricter lending standards, it's now harder to get a mortgage for a condo than a single-family home. You have better chances of negotiating if you can pay cash since sellers prefer quick, smooth sales. Paying cash also means faster closing time giving you full, immediate equity in your new home.

2. Do your home work. Find out how much

other homes have sold for in the same area.

This knowledge will aid you in negotiating

and protect you from paying too much if the

home has been priced higher than other

similar homes in the location.

3. Keep your cool. If you think you've finally found the perfect condo for sale in Bridgewater NJ, don't show your emotions. If the seller sees how excited you are about purchasing the home, he or she will know you will be willing to pay more. Just play it cool and ask questions you can use as leverage when the time for negotiation comes.

4. Know more about the seller’s circumstances.

Find out what motivates the seller to put their

home on the market and then tailor your offer

to meet his/her needs. Is the seller in the

hurry to move? Is there divorce involved? Does

the seller already have a new place and wants a

quick closing? If the seller really needs to sell

the home fast, they’ll be more likely to

negotiate on price.

5. Expect to compromise. Let’s face it, you can’t have it all. Instead of going head to head with the seller, be willing to present options and alternatives. This shows your willingness to compromise. The key is to know your desired outcome and limitations, because if you're not prepared to compromise, the negotiations won't get far.
