THE #1 SKILL AN AGENT CAN POSSESS IS THE ABILITY TO NEGOGIATE.
Why, you may ask. Let’s list just some of the people and entities your agent may be required to negotiate with on your behalf:
The buyers – Whether the buyers are represented by an agent or not, your agent must decipher their wants and needs to guarantee that you will get the best deal.
The buyers’ agent – Obviously, your agent will negotiate the deal in coordination with the other agent.
The bank or mortgage company – You want to make sure your buyers are qualified before entering into contract.
The closing attorney – Things might come up at closing that need to be handled.
The home inspector – Often the deal has to be renegotiated after this report.
The appraiser – Even under the most recent appraisal rules, the agent may be able to help you contest an appraisal if necessary.
The buyers’ buyer – If your buyer has trouble with the deal on the house they are selling, it might require renegotiating certain aspects of their sale.
The seller of the home you are buying – If there are challenges on your sale it might require you renegotiating certain aspects of your purchase. Email: joliepowell@NUMBER1EXPERT.com Phone: 631-473-0420

Most home purchase agreements have clauses that deal with termites. After the agreement is ratified, a termite inspection is arranged. Before the closing can occur, the sellers must be able to produce papers signed by a licensed exterminator stating that the house is free of infestation and that any termite damage has been repaired.
Before you sign an agreement to buy or sell a home, you should read the termite clause and be sure that you understand it. Who selects the exterminator and pays for the inspection? If bugs are found, who pays for the treatment? Are the sellers obligated to repair any damage and have they placed a limit of the dollar amount they will spend on those repairs? If treatment is required, the buyers may want a chance to discuss the options with the pest control company, especially if someone in the family is sensitive to the chemicals used to control the termites. Ask about the exterminator's guarantees or service contract options.
