Escalation Clause

Buying a Better Home for a Lower Price

When a home buyer is willing to pay more for a home, but prefers to offer less without the risk of losing the home to other offering buyers, an escalation clause is just the ticket. Getting a dream home for a lower price requires advanced strategies to increase the buyer’s chance of getting the property, while saving as much money as possible.

Escalation Clause

Home buyers often prefer to start looking first at the lower priced homes because they want to see the best possible deals. Buyers want a good deal, so they will check out the bargains to see if they’re attractive, and they can always go see higher price properties, and offer more later if necessary. Buyers can sometimes find money to go up in price if the cheaper properties are too much of a compromise. But they never want to waste money by offering too much. #escalationclause #millsact |  Blog Video

When a buyer finds a property they like, additional items sometimes included by more advanced buyer’s agents in the offer are: Letter to seller (often called a Love Letter), letter from a reference, escalation clause (based on the buyer’s agent conversation with the listing agent), appraisal clause, inspection (advanced agents will make sure it is focused on safety and health), post occupancy, also based on a conversation with the agent.

The escalation clause is often used in today’s market because the good deals go very quickly, often with many competing offers from other buyers. This is especially true in the safer, suburban neighborhoods.

Here’s an example of what an escalation clause may look like:

Purchase price to be $400,000, unless the seller receives a higher offer from another buyer; in which case, this offer shall automatically escalate to $2,000 above the other buyer’s offer, to a maximum of $500,000. If the seller accepts the escalated offer, the seller shall provide proof the higher offer from the other buyer.

A more comprehensive example might look like this:

During the period that the initial offer remains open, should the Seller receive an executed written offer from another Buyer (“competing offer”) that is higher than the initial offer, Buyer hereby agrees to escalate his offer by increments of $ 1,500 until such time as Buyer’s offer first exceeds the then-existing competing offer. Buyer’s offer shall not escalate unless and until Seller has received a competing offer that exceeds Buyer’s then-existing offer.
Buyer’s offer shall not escalate beyond a total purchase price of $500,000. Seller agrees that each escalation pursuant to this Addendum shall be deemed a valid offer to purchase the property.
Each time there is an escalation pursuant to this Addendum, the Listing Agent must notify the Buyer’s Agent within one (1) hour of each escalation. If Buyer and Seller agree on a total purchase price pursuant to this Addendum, they agree to execute a Contract at such price, with all other terms of the initial offer remaining the same.
Buyer shall have the right to inspect complete copies of all written competing offers received by Seller pursuant to which there has been an escalation of Buyer’s offer.

Buyers want to offer the lowest amount that they can, and sellers want the most amount they can get; but in a competitive market where there may be multiple offers, buyers may lose out of the home they want if they are outbid by another buyer.

The option sometimes used in today’s hot markets is the escalator clause of a real estate contract. An escalation clause states how much the offer will go automatically above the highest offer received by the seller from other buyers.  It also states a ceiling price that it will not go over.  Besides being a faster ways to negotiate, the escalation clause reduces the chance that a buyer will lose out to a competing higher offer from another eager buyer.

Before using an escalation clause, the buyer’s agent should ask the listing agent if multiple offers have been received, or if multiple offers are likely to be received before the seller choses whom to sell to.

Also, the buyer’s agent must be able to confirm and validate any competitive bids that are received. A down side is that, by including an escalation clause with an offer, the buyer will show their hand as to how much the buyer is willing to pay.  Some sellers may thus raise their expectations of how much they demand for the property.

A few sellers do not like escalator clauses, and may reject them. They would rather have a potential buyer offer their highest and best offer from the beginning.

In addition to powerful tactics in a purchase offer, the buyer’s agent also matters: Advanced buyers agents know that the listing agent would like to know why it is an advantage to work with the buyer’s agent, such as years in the area.  Buyer’s agent may include in the offer reasons why the buyer’s agent will be extra likely to help get the transaction done successfully. The Corey Chambers Team, for example, has the unique ability to make transactions successful because the team gives the buyer a no-risk guarantee, and therefore the buyer is more likely to perform and to be satisfied with their purchase.

How to Turn Presidents Day into Your Penthouse


REAL ESTATE NEWS


Whether or not you’ve ever imagined yourself in the White House, you can use presidential power to get your dream home. Here’s how: |  Blog Video

Start by thanking and appreciating President Biden, President Trump and all other presidents. For some, this comes naturally. For others, it’s unimaginable to be appreciative of “the enemy.” For all of us, here’s an opportunity to escape the echo chamber of social media. Think for yourself, for your benefit! Presidents Day is here to remind us, not only of our presidents, but of the power of appreciation. But, how does this help us to get a nicer home?

Most readers of the Loft Blog are in the mindset of appreciating real estate. Many feel the need to move in the next few weeks or few months into an amazing, unique abode of our own. How does appreciation work to move our lives forward for the better? Recognition and enjoyment of the good qualities of something provides us a full understanding of the situation. You can’t catch, grab or carry newer, better things when your hands are full of lesser objects. The same holds true for mental and emotional baggage. When we abandon hate, anger, disdain, condemnation and lesser ideas, we open up the space to receive good fortune. By respecting and properly valuing something, we’re able to toss aside negative energy so that we can fully grasp bigger, more positive opportunities. When we focus squarely on the good things that we want in life, that focal point becomes a sharp, clear-cut attainable goal.

Whether it’s a house with a white picket fence, a top-floor luxury loft penthouse, or the White House, appreciation is a key to open the door of our dreams. By eliminating any and all spite or scorn from our minds, we open up to new possibilities that were previously unattainable. Appreciation of everything — our current home, our presidents of opposing parties — giving recognition gives us more power to balance, visualize and receive a better home and a better life. This appreciation effect grows exponentially when we take action by demonstrating that appreciation. To our past, present, and future leaders: Happy #PresidentsDay

Industrial Live Work Space, Los Angeles House Inflation Rate, Stagflation and Real Estate Prices


L.A. single family residence home prices went up while inner city condo prices fell in 2020

Real estate markets and the shifting economy are inexorably linked.

Real estate is one of the best hedges against inflation because inflation exerts upward pressure on home prices. We’re now entering a period of stagflation because a significant number of Americans are convinced that shutting down much of the economy can reduce viruses. It cannot. Colds and flu-like illness have always been with us, and shall be for the foreseeable future. Panic, hysteria, exaggeration and overreaction have always caused more harm than good. Shutting down jobs can only reduce wealth, decrease GDP and diminish resources needed for vital needs such as health care, food and housing. In addition to reduced real wealth, stagflation is also composed of money printing and quantitative easing. The federal reserve and federal government have committed themselves to unlimited money printing and unlimited quantitative easing. Their promise of unlimited money supply is a promise of runaway inflation. The dollar has already been crashing in relation to bitcoin dramatically for 11 years. Paper products and building materials have shot up dramatically. Stagflation is a combination of this inflation with the reduction of economic output — reduction of wealth. We’ve been promised more money and less wealth. That’s the stagflation that is now being delivered. How does this affect home prices?

New suburban home prices went up sharply in 2020 because the money supply was dramatically increased at the same time that the public was told to stay safer at home. Home owners were temporarily able to afford increases in the comforts of the single family home: home improvement, add-ons, expansion, new swimming pools, new home theaters, new landscaping, new computers along with more expensive homes. At the same time, most big city urban areas declined in perceived safety, desirability and price. These two trends are expected to continue, but most suburban homes are likely plateau in price around 2021 because the home improvement phase has already been accomplished, going “back to school” is going back in fashion, home prices are relatively high in comparison to GDP, and the overall economy shall face new crises as massive unwinding sets in for many industries. While big cities shall continue to bear the brunt, suburbs shall feel more financial squeeze as commercial real estate, travel, touring, restaurant, retail and other locked down industries realize exploding debt, failures, insolvencies and liquidations.
