So how do you make sure your offer is enticing enough to win over the seller? Here are some ideas:
• Find their motivations. To seal the deal, you have to know the seller’s motivations. We’re all motivated by something, and seeing things from the seller’s point of view can help you write a killer offer. Usually it’s one of three things:
