How to negotiate the price of a house successfully

Once you've found the home you want to buy, you'll need to decide how much to offer. We already know that negotiating price can be a stressful and frustrating process.
What is the best way to make an offer and negotiate the price to ensure you get the perfect property at the best possible price without appearing rude or deceptive?
While you want to get the best possible price, you don't want to maintain a bad relationship with the landlord or realtor.

Do your research before you negotiate 
Before you start negotiating the price of a home, it's important to do your research to find out what the prices are for similar homes in the area and set a budget. 
This will help you know if the price you are asking for the home is reasonable or not.
An important step that can help you negotiate the price is to find out if there are any problems in the house or in the area, such as noise or security, that could affect the value of the house. When negotiating the price of a house, it is important to present solid and verifiable arguments.
For example, if you notice problems in the house, such as necessary repairs or renovations, you can argue that they should be taken into account when setting the price.
When setting a budget you also have to take into account the costs involved in buying a home, such as taxes and necessary repairs.
 

Make a low but reasonable offer
When making an offer, it is important that it is low but reasonable. The offer should reflect the research you have done and take into account the prices of similar homes in the area.

How to make an offer on a house 
When you have an idea of how much you would like to offer, proceed as follows:
- Put the offer in writing (a phone call followed by an email is sufficient) to avoid confusion or arguments later.
- If you are buying in cash, you can also act quickly. If you give the impression that you are prepared and willing to act quickly, that will also help.
- Be prepared to negotiate. If the seller is interested in your offer, negotiations are conducted through the real estate agent. 
However, it is important to be prepared to walk away from the negotiation if an agreement is not reached. In that case, you can look for other properties or resume the negotiation at a later date, when it may be more conducive to getting the price you want.

If they accept your offer, ask them to take the property off the market. Agree with the agent on a written list of fixtures and fittings to be included. Having it in writing early in the process reduces the chances of disagreements and delays later.

If you follow these negotiating tips and techniques, you'll be on your way to getting a good price for the home you want without appearing rude or unprofessional.
