FAQ
Bidding higher is the best way to beat an existing offer with an escalation clause. In most cases, the seller's agent won't and can't reveal the highest offer in an escalation clause, so you may have to guess.
Many states, including Texas, California, Illinois, and Massachusetts, recognize escalation clauses as a matter of contract law.
When you include an escalation clause in your offer, you're telling the seller your highest possible offer right out of the gate. This can limit your negotiating power. Additionally, some sellers won't accept offers that include escalation clauses. So you may be limited in the homes you can make these types of bids on.
The use of escalation clauses may also lengthen the negotiation process, a potential disadvantage to sellers and buyers. The buyer who is unsuccessful in a negotiation where a competing buyer used an escalation clause may feel that they were treated unfairly.
However, buyers need to be careful with these clauses as they can sometimes backfire. “An escalation clause needs to be in conjunction with a really good offer,” said Madani of Room Real Estate. “It's really the whole package to get your offer accepted.”
If a buyer makes an offer of $400,000, an escalator clause could specify that if a higher offer comes in, the buyer will beat it by $3,000, but only up to $427,000. If an offer of $405,000 is tabled, the escalator clause would trigger a new offer of $408,000.
