Shar NJ 1 Report post Posted October 30, 2011 My two most common objections are: From Sellers: You said there was no cost to me, obviously there is since you are taking your profit from my sales price. From Buyers: Why is the listed price (for sale with an agent) less than the lease option price? How does everyone else handle these objections? Thanks!

From Buyers: Why is the listed price (for sale with an agent) less than the lease option price?Can you get a mortgage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelC 160 Report post Posted October 30, 2011 From Sellers: You said there was no cost to me, obviously there is since you are taking your profit from my sales price."Mr. Homeowner, as discussed, your net price is $200K. That hasn't changed. I'm adding my fee to that price, not deducting it from that price. The t/b is paying it, not you."If the homeowner can't understand that or objects to you making $5K or whatever the amount is, he's neither serious nor motivated. Move on, and let him try and find a deal elsewhere that will net him more. He won't. From Buyers: Why is the listed price (for sale with an agent) less than the lease option price?Like Doug said, if someone is a cash buyer, be it their cash or a bank's, money talks and the homeowner will be willing to drop their price. Any t/b should be able to understand this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
