Keys to
Successful Negotiations
Very few offers are accepted as written. Purchase contracts usually need to be negotiated and diplomacy is essential in order to keep things moving in a
forward direction. While the bottom line (price minus seller expenses) always seems the most important element; the remaining ingredients in the
contract need a thorough examination also.
