So how did it end up? Did they accept your counter offer?

Trying,

No, you are not crazy....

You did what you thought was right so stop second guessing yourself. If your counter is not accepted you can always go back and accept their offer.

Good luck,

I think yo made a great counter offer, Like somene said below they might come back and ask for the rest of the closing cost again.

From the initial look of it.. you did ok and gave a pretty solid counter, but like it's already been said before... expect to have to come out of more w/ the closing costs and then have a higher sales price.

Best of luck!

I agree with Naima. The borrowers need the money to close. You should keep the 4K in the deal and change your sales price up. To them its 8-12 bucks a month. Point is they need the 4K to close. You are not greedy but dont take away their closing costs. Otherwise they might not be able to buy it.

I am sure that they expected a counter offer. However, I think that if buyers are asking for cash to close, they probably need it. They may have good credit to get a loan but be cash poor. So be prepared for them to come back and insist on the 4K in closing costs.

I don't think you blew it. You gave a decent counter offer and I am sure that you guys will meet somewhere in the middle.

Good luck,
