Most people think the highest offer is the best offer. That is not always true.

In this episode of Talking Realty, Glen sits down with Taysia from the Ohio Property Group to walk through our offer review process, from the moment an offer comes in until the digital ink is dry.
We cover checking whether an offer is complete, spotting missing signatures and blanks, reviewing financing, concessions, commission requests, timelines, contingencies, possession, and all the fine print that can quietly cost a seller money.
If you are selling your home, this episode will help you understand how to compare offers, protect your bottom line, and avoid signing something that gets worse after the contract is accepted.
In this episode:
How to tell whether an offer is actually real and complete
The missing documents sellers should never ignore
Why the highest price is not always the strongest offer
What to look for in contingencies, concessions, commissions, and deadlines
How to think about offer deadlines, counters, showings, and open houses
