While you are deciding if you want to purchase the house, having it professionally inspected and appraised is an important step to determine the value and if it is an investment that you want to make.

While your real estate agent will usually help negotiate the pricing of the home, you may offer the same price that the seller is asking for. Whether you want to offer less than the asked amount, or even more, that is your choice. 

The reason some may choose to offer more is if they are absolutely sold on the home and want to ensure that they outbid others who want the home as well. This is not as common; however, it is usually done when there is a hot market and houses are being sold quickly.

Considerations before making an offer:

• The amount of your bank loan
• How much you desire the home
• Your real estate agent’s advice
• The value of the home
