Hi Ken:

I have lived in the sowntown area of Raleigh for over thirty years and am very familiar with the inventory of Inside the Beltline. You are in a great price range and will have access to many homes that will meet your needs. Yes, sellers are willing to negotiate prices in that range and yes you probably can get a decent deal on the purchase but be aware that many sellers have a gut feeling of what their house is worth and how much they want to get out of a sale so sometimes a low balling offers will be negatively received.

A lot of the homes in that price range are new construction and the builders probably would be more ready to accept a lower offer BUT you never know until you ask in this market place.

I would be happy to chat with you about houses in this area and find out exactly what you are looking for and do a in depth search for you. My husband and I work together as a team so you get two for the price of one. Are you familiar with buyer's agency? Not every state has that and all that means is that you get an agent who advocates only on your behalf and represents you and not the seller. It is a great service that is offered.

Please feel free to call me directly with any questions-919-612-7399.

Thanks

Linda Payne
