<p>When you show the seller that you have an objective basis for your offer, it takes the emotion out of the negotiation. Show them on paper or on your computer how you came up with your offer. If they can see all that costs you’ll incur in buying, holding, repairing and marketing their house, they can see and understand why you’re offering what you’re offering. It makes it a lot easier for them to justify it to themselves, especially if it’s less than they expected.</p>

<p>Finding out what the other party – the seller – really needs, so you can meet that need!  Often is has nothing to do with price.  It may be that they want to move to live near their mother who is ill!  Maybe they really need the down payment for an apartment.  You don’t know that until you ask open-ended questions – like “Why do you want to sell?” You’ll find out a lot of information with that one simple question.</p>
