Good afternoon, everybody. My name’s Chris Berger, and it’s time for a Berger Point.<br /><br />You know, down through the years,<br /><br />I’ve negotiated many deals, and the whole idea is to make yours the most attractive to the seller.<br /><br />But one of the things that I did down through the years,<br /><br />I asked my buyer to make an offer, and in addition to the full price that he was offering, I told him to offer a $15,000 bonus.<br /><br />And how that was going to work is that he was going to ask the seller to hold a mortgage for $15,000 over five years.<br /><br /><br /><br />So this way my buyer would be paying additional interest to the seller and the seller would be getting a check each month.<br /><br />And at the end of five years, you make it a balloon payment.<br /><br /><br /><br />So they would deduct the principal — from the amount that he promised to pay.<br /><br />And this way, the seller would be getting that much more money each month.<br /><br />And my seller wound up going with the deal.<br /><br />It just works. It’s just thinking out of the box.<br /><br />And that’s all I’m asking you to do.<br /><br />***<br /><br />And one of my favorite all-time singers was Neil Diamond.<br /><br />And it’s really great that they have different movies coming out about him now, and of course the play, and keeps him forever alive.<br /><br />And that’s my point today.<br /><br />---------------------------------<br /><br />I'm Chris Berger and I'm sharing my 40+ years of experience as an NY & FL realtor, in home renovation & property management.
