Incentives that Help Seal the Deal for Home Buyers

As a home seller, it is your job to make your St. James Plantation home seem so desirable that a potential home buyer can’t turn away. If you can tell you have a home buyer that is close to making an offer or that is contemplating your counter-offer, there are a few ways you can help sweeten the deal for them.


By offering little incentives for the home buyer, they will be more likely to commit to making the purchase. Sometimes, it really are the little things that count and if you make the extra effort, you will be more likely to seal the deal!

Consider offering potential home buyers one of the following incentives:

  • Offer to pay the buyer’s closing costs associated with the sale.
  • Offer to leave home furnishings you might have otherwise taken, for example, a porch swing you had built specifically for the home.
  • Offer to pay for any inspection fees associated with the home.
  • Offer to pay the property taxes the new homeowner will have to pre-pay when signing the deal.
  • Offer to pay for any moving services or moving expenses that will be involved for the new homeowner.
In comparison to the cost of the home these simple incentives are nothing, but it could be something this simple that gives the potential home buyer the push they need to commit to buying your house.
