But Uncle Fred Got His House for $40,000 Under List Price in Highlands Ranch

Fact or Fiction

If I had a quarter for every time I hear somebody brag about the killer deal that so and so got just last week I’d travel to Alaska.

I mean really, how do you expect me to respond to that?

“Uh okay lets offer $40K under asking price on that new listing that just came out on the market with 3 offers on it asking for highest and best.”

So now that I have that off my chest lets talk.

The Facts

There are some fantastic deals out there in Highlands Ranch and the low financing rates make it more affordable than it has been in a long long time.

The statistics say that the average house in Highlands Ranch sell for 97% of the asking price.  If the average sale price is close to $330,000 then you can expect close to 10K in discounts or incentives.

The Lesson

I appreciate that you need to ask advice from trusted friends when it comes to making a big decision like buying a house.  Just make sure that the person giving you advice on value has enough CURRENT experience to advise you correctly.
