Step 1: Be a Market Savvy Buyer 
Before you begin the negotiations, it is essential to learn more about the real estate market in the community you decide to settle in. Century 21 XSELL REALTY has many resources available to provide you with knowledge about your potential purchase. Here's how these resources can be of help: 

Use Real Estate Data: Research historical selling prices for houses located in the neighborhood of your dream house that are of similar build to give a clearer view of the realistic current market value. 
Consider Market Trends: Is it a seller's or buyer's market? This could help you in deciding on how you will negotiate. 
Identify Unique Features of the Property: Does the dream home you have in mind have special upgrades or features not found anywhere else? This can increase the value of the property and provide you with some leverage when making an offer. 

Step 2: Identify and Exploit Negotiation Leverage Points 
Once you've grasped market trends, it's time to identify areas where negotiation can be particularly fruitful. Here are some factors to consider: 
Required Repairs or Renovations: Does The house require many repairs? This might be something that you can always use to negotiate a lower price. 
Length of Time on the Market: If the property has been sitting for a while, the seller may be more motivated to accept a lower offer to close the deal quickly. 
Comparable sales: If you have found comparable homes that have sold lately for less, show your prospective customer this data to support your proposed price.
