Our original offer was 400k with 10k sellers concessions, what were thinking of counteroffering is 385k with 10k seller concessions, which only takes 15k away from the sellers NET for a roof that could be 20-30k. 

The sellers enthusiastically rejected the offer and provided no counteroffer.

If someone promised me to return 24% on money borrowed and gave me a piece of paper I would make a counter offer to sell them a Brooklyn bridge.

.✅ Offer & Negotiation Support: I run multiple what-if scenarios, draft negotiation strategies, and reframe counteroffers to protect my clients’ bottom line.✅ Listing & Marketing Firepower: I craft better property descriptions, investor-focused highlights, and high-converting social content to attract the right buyers and tenants.✅ Problem Solving: I tap ChatGPT to clarify complex inspection or permitting issues and translate them into clear action steps for my clients.✅ Efficiency & Scale: By providing on-demand answers (at scale), it frees me up to do what really drives returns: finding deals, negotiating hard, and staying connected with our clients and partners.At the end of the day, it means I can help my clients buy smarter, sell stronger, and move faster — and I stay in their corner as a more knowledgeable partner. 

You can send an offer 10-20% under asking to 10 properties and 1 or 2 will entertain he offer with a counter offer.  

After receiving a seller multiple counter offer, I removed the inspection contingency on my second offer.

the agent puts theirs in and we counter offer.

So seems to me people just look at the price and pass .. where as if you can make an offer.. maybe the owner would take it or counter offer.. 

Typically, that would be when an offer was made earlier, and a counteroffer is created back and forth. 

Will Wait till Monday to see if we get a counter offer.
