Can you OVER negotiate ??????

Hi BP,

I wanted to see what other flippers/ developers thoughts were on this topic.

When does it become OVER NEGOTIATING? I find myself when making offers, obviously wanting the bottom bottom line price, for good reason.

BUT, when does the potential of losing the deal over a few thousand dollars become not worth it? The deal works at the particular # but I am still extending, trying to get the lowest price.

I currently have my criteria set at 30% margin, which works great for my area. But am trying to scale up the volume that I am doing on an annual basis for 2019.

Would love to hear others thoughts on this !
