How Sellers Can Win in a Multiple Offer Situation

Albuquerque Real Estate Talk | Episode 552

How Sellers Handle Multiple Offers

One of the most exciting—and potentially overwhelming—situations for a home seller is receiving multiple offers. While it may seem like a dream scenario, it brings its own set of questions. In this episode, Tracy and Tego Venturi break down how to navigate the process and avoid common pitfalls.

Should you accept the highest offer? Counter everyone? Ask for best and final? According to the Venturis, there's no one-size-fits-all approach. The right move depends on the specifics of the offers, the seller’s goals, and market dynamics.

Sometimes, the “best” offer isn’t the highest. It could be the one with stronger financing, fewer contingencies, or better timing. The Venturis explain how smart sellers evaluate appraisal gaps, escalation clauses, and the strength of each buyer’s position.

Balloon Fiesta Neighborhood Spotlight

With the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta just around the corner, the team also shares which neighborhoods offer the best views and easiest access to the event. Whether you’re looking to host family or get a front-row seat to the festivities, location makes all the difference.

Mortgage Rate Update

Rates dipped slightly this week, but buyers remain cautious. Tego breaks down the latest mortgage trends and what they mean for affordability going into fall. This segment is especially relevant for anyone trying to time their purchase or refinance plans.
