New to selling need answers

I’m selling a piece of property. The first in a long line of investments. I do not have to sell it but I’m greedy and it is worth a lot more than I paid for it. I want to be able to work with a buyer. I’ve bought a lot but never sold. My question is, can I offer a buyer cash back on the sale? For instance I could say if you offer full asking price I’ll give $15k back at closing or some such? Is this unethical? Legal? Any thoughts or advice are greatly appreciated!

Depends on their financing.....there will be limits on seller paid cost for the buyer, typically 3-6% of their loan amount, and of course the property has to appraise.
