Here’s how smart buyers (👋 with help from GG) separate the steals from the duds:

✅ Compare the drop to local comps.
A $20K reduction sounds nice — but is it really under market value?
📍 GG Pro Tip: I’ll run a custom CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) for you — free.

✅ Look at how long it’s been sitting.
If it’s been on the market for 60+ days with no offers… there may be more room to negotiate.

✅ Check if it’s staged or empty.
Vacant homes often mean the seller has already moved — and is carrying two mortgages. That’s leverage.

✅ Watch the price pattern.
One reduction could be a fluke. Two or more? That seller is motivated.

✅ Pay attention to the upgrades (or lack of).
If the kitchen still screams 1993, you may get a discount — just know your reno costs.
