The investor is listening for a pulse, a passion. The first step to inspiring listeners is to discover what moves you and to identify the verse that makes your heart sing. Carmine Gallo is a speaker, communication advisor and author of Talk Like TED and The Storytellerâs Secret.
The typical home sold was on the market for 5 weeks. You may not have long to decide whether to accept the offer or to make a counteroffer. Most contracts give the home seller 48 hours or less in which to respond to the buyer. You don't have to accept the offer, especially if it differs from what you asked for in your listing agreement.
Once your offer has been accepted, the clock starts ticking. This timeline will help you anticipate what will happen and when, until you close on your new home. The average time frame from entering in to the purchase agreement until closing is 30 to 45 days. Delays sometimes occur, depending on inspection outcomes, needed repairs, financing issues, etc. I will remain in contact with you throughout this period, but if you have any questions, DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL ME.
