About the Metropolitan/Greater Seattle, Queen Anne/Magnolia, Fremont/Wallingford and Ballard/Green Lake Real Estate Market
 The Seattle real estate market has been booming for the last decade.While the rest of the country has been negatively impacted by the national real estate market slump, Seattle has been an exception. Our strong economy, high-paying job market, projected job growth and the limited land between the mountains and Puget Sound has kept our real estate market strong. Prices are still appreciating and Buyers are still making their moves -- only now with more inventory to choose from than in recent years and better opportunities to avoid paying top dollar for properties through bidding wars where sales prices often closed for more than $100,000+/- over their list price. Let me guide you through the process, representing your interests and making sure your real estate needs are met and your expectations, exceeded. That is my mission and my goal in serving you. "Stick with Stone" for all your real estate needs. You'll be glad you did.
Accepting An Offer >Offers and Counter Offers
Many of the offers real agents submit for prospective buyers aren't exactly what the sellers want. The price may be lower than they are asking or there might be terms included in the offer that will require negotiation. What happens after the offer is submitted?
The seller's real estate agent will present the offer to the sellers, along with the buyer's qualifications. If the sellers accept the offer, then a purchase agreement is written and signed by both parties. If the sellers counter the offer, the next action is initiated by the buyers when they make a response, either accepting the counter offer or countering it with yet another figure. If you want to buy a particular house, your chances of succeeding are greater if your initial offer is as close to the asking price as possible. You could save money by engaging in lengthy negotiations, but you run the risk of losing the home if a more attractive offer comes in from another buyer.
