Why Concessions Matter in Today’s Market
With more homes available for sale, buyers have more options—and sellers face stiffer competition. That’s why nearly half of all sellers are now offering concessions to attract buyers and close deals.
What Are Seller Concessions?
A seller concession is something you offer to make your home more appealing to buyers. Examples include:
- Covering closing costs
- Reducing the asking price
- Making repairs before closing
- Offering a home warranty
Think of Concessions as Tools, Not Tradeoffs
Sellers sometimes hesitate to offer concessions, but they’re actually a smart strategy. Home prices have risen about 55% over the past five years, giving you plenty of room to make a concession or two and still come out ahead.
What This Means for You
If you’re considering selling in Fort Lauderdale, Oakland Park, Weston, or Pembroke Pines, concessions could make the difference between sitting on the market and getting your home sold quickly.
