As a continuation from another thread about Agents picking up their act (which I don’t disagree with), and given that there were several people who were dissatisfied with their experiences with Agents, I thought that it might make an interesting post to attempt to find out how Buyers (lets forget Sellers for the point of this exercise) would like to see property sold.
Here are a couple of options.
1.The list price is the price that the Seller wants and there is no negotiation.
2.The list price is the lowest price and the Seller will only accept offers over this price.
3.The list price is the highest price that the Seller would expect and all offers should be considered.
4.There is a price range given, ‘Offers between $x and $y’.
5.There is no price at all and Buyers must come up with their own value.
The point that must be considered in this exercise is that there must be only one option and legislation is put in place to dictate that this will be the one and only way that property can be bought and sold.
I believe that we are fast coming to the point that option 5. will be the norm. I will explain why after some other opinions are posted.
