EP32: When Waiting for a Better Offer Can Cost You Thousands


Listen Later

Your home hits the market. The first open home goes well. Then a strong offer lands on the table.

Do you take it or hold out for something better?

It's one of the hardest decisions sellers face, and getting it wrong can cost far more than most people realise.

In this episode of Selling Southport, Leon Wright sits down with Andrew Wright to discuss why the first offer is often the best offer, how to assess an offer properly, and the risks of waiting too long for a higher price.

Using a real Southport case study, Andrew explains how buyer momentum can disappear quickly, why strong buyers don't wait forever, and how sellers can make confident decisions based on facts rather than emotion.

  • Why the first offer is often the strongest offerĀ 
  • How to assess an offer beyond just the priceĀ

If you're selling now or planning to sell in the next 12 months, this episode could save you from one of the most expensive mistakes sellers make.
