Have you had a buyer client recently lose out in a multiple offer situation? Is inventory still low? Are you familiar with the term appraisal gap? Do you have an idea what it is or how to apply it? This episode is for you if you want to learn more about finding potential sellers in a low inventory market & the appraisal gap. My guest, Regan Maki, and I will be digging deep into these topics.

Three Things You’ll Learn from this Episode

- There is always room for learning:
Despite being in the industry for 21 years, Regan believes that you can never have too many tools in your toolbox. She has enrolled in my coaching program, which will help her get even better at selling luxury homes.   

- The Appraisal Gap:
When there is a listed property with multiple offers, you can apply an appraisal gap to get the property. An appraisal gap is a difference between the fair market value determined by the appraiser and the amount you agreed to pay for the home.

- Dealing with low inventory:
When dealing with a low inventory period, you can always ask a buyer how much they are willing to spend on a property. Then reach out to people in the area with the offer to see who is ready to sell.
