Buyers’ Guide – Offer

Offer

If the market is slow, when making an offer, don’t be afraid to offer less than the asking price. If the property needs work done, you can use this as a negotiating tool.

Top Tips for making an offer

  • When looking at buying apartments, check exactly what is included in the service charge and how much it is.  
  • Ask about the terms of the lease and its length. If the lease has less than 80 years left, use this as a negotiating tool and make an offer below the asking price.
