Unfortunately, in high-pressure sales, many women are taken advantage of. Think about a single woman walking into a car yard, they are preyed upon; Real Estate is no different.
We’re not insulting a woman’s intelligence. Some fantastic, amazingly great negotiators are women, hands down.
If you’re a lady looking to buy a property, you have a few choices: learn how to negotiate, or study it. Have a male friend accompany you to inspections. Be confident and stand up tall. If you want an expert on your side, consider engaging the services of a Real Estate Buyer’s Agent. Be careful who you choose; make sure they have at least 10 years’ experience in the real estate industry.
If it sounds too Good to be true, it generally is!
Buying a property is generally one’s biggest purchase in a lifetime. You want to make sure that you are buying on the right street, in the right suburb, on the right side of the road, in the right building, and that you have done all the due diligence. You can’t afford to pay too much. Knowing what to research is important; any negatives that aren’t deal breakers can be used as an opportunity to negotiate a better price. With over 30 years in the real estate industry, I have helped many women buy and sell properties. One unique characteristic that oozes out of a woman’s personality is excitement and emotion. Women tend to be more in tune with their emotions than men. Showing your emotions to a real estate agent can be the biggest mistake you could make. Get excited when you get back in the car, and you are far away from the property. Control those great emotions, and please hold off!
