akkum_bakkum Posted March 4 Report Posted March 4 My buddy is going through a situation. He signed a contract recently with TM in a community developed exclusively by them. The contract price was 585k and its an inventory home. There are other inventory homes listed on either side of his contracted property. Those prices were slashed down significantly...Although the sizes of house are different, the avg price/sft went down and he is now underwater. One side slashed price to 166/sft and the other side to 156/sft. He wanted to approach the builder and ask for reduction in purchase price. Is it normal and will the builder agree to it? I haven't come across such situation before to offer him any suggestions. what do you think? Real moghul @Sonu_Patel and others Quote

If the difference is too high, then he can try to negotiate and ask for some discount… they may at least give some discount .. Quote

Check if any information is not disclosed properly like Melrose tax or property tax %. You can use it to negotiate saying, you cannot pay that much. Typically they do not want to lose a buyer, so they try to give more discount but not as much as they are offering other homes. A friend just went through this, thats how I know. 2 Quote

Typically they do not want to lose a buyer, so they try to give more discount but not as much as they are offering other homes. A friend just went through this, thats how I know. Just found out more details. He paid 32k EMD with home sale contingency clause. That may help him come out of the contract with 8k loss. He is saying the same house may be renegotiated 35k less than this price (based on the neighboring homes' price/sft). In which case, I would think giving that dhamki saying, reduction in price may help double paperwork for loan team, title company etc. Either way, no harm in trying ane anukuntunna nenu bhi Quote

Your friend can negotiate hard with a hard tone, but if they are already in loan process, its difficult, take a soft tone approach. Quote
