Getting a home under contract doesn’t mean the negotiation is finished.For many agents, the home inspection has become the second negotiation — and it can be where an otherwise solid transaction starts falling apart.Tim and Julie Harris break down how listing agents can prepare sellers before an inspection, how buyer agents should set expectations before the repair report arrives, and how to handle repair requests without creating unnecessary drama.You’ll learn when a pre-inspection may make sense, how seller home warranties can reduce potential objections, what buyers should reasonably request, why repair credits and escrow arrangements can sometimes work better than seller-managed repairs, and what to do when the buyer appears to be using the inspection primarily as another opportunity to negotiate price.You’ll also learn why successful agents must become the calm voice in difficult transactions. Inspection problems, inexperienced agents, emotional buyers, and frustrated sellers are all part of the business. Your ability to anticipate problems, communicate clearly, and keep the deal together is what separates agents who write contracts from agents who consistently close them.This is practical, tactical real estate coaching for agents who want stronger negotiation skills, more closed transactions, and a career built on solving problems instead of creating them.Free training: HarrisRealEstateDaily.comCoaching: PremierCoaching.comJoin eXp + Libertas: WhyLibertas.com/HarrisText Tim Direct: 512-758-0206Opinions are my own and not the views of eXp Realty.
