Address: 412 NE 18th Ave, Fort Lauderdale FL. List: $675,000. DOM: 38. Comps: $640k, $655k, $662k. Buyer max: $660k. Motivation: relocating for new job, kids start school Aug 12. Other offers: no.

1. Opening offer strategy The home has sat 38 days. Comps say $655k is fair. List at $675k is high. Open at $635k. That is below comps. It signals you did your homework. It leaves room to land at $655k. 2. Counter scenarios Aggressive: Ask for $635k plus seller covers $7,500 closing credit. Use the 38 days on market. Frame it as helping both sides close before the school deadline. Moderate: Land at $655k flat, no concessions. Quick 21-day close. This matches the comp average and feels clean. Walk-away: Do not cross $660k. The buyer cannot stretch and the comps do not support it. 3. Talking points - This home has been on market 38 days. The market is telling you something. - 3 recent comps within half a mile sold under $665k. - My buyer is pre-approved and can close in 21 days. - The family needs to be in before August 12 for school. - We are ready to sign tonight if we agree on terms.
