REALTORS® are negotiation experts. If you buy a home without an agent, you'll have to negotiate and decide how much to offer on your own. This may cause you to unknowingly overpay for your home – or lose out on one you want.
Address the Seller and Introduce Yourself. If you know the seller's name, use that, but you likely won't know the name of the owner of the home. Detail What Makes the Home Stand Out to You. Find Common Ground. Present Your Offer. Note Any Contingencies You Have. Close with a Friendly Thank You.
