What is the first decision?
Price is only one part of an offer. Compare the seller's requested timing, included items, financing evidence, and the maximum cash you would add if value or repairs differ from expectations.
Worked comparison: two offers at the same price can differ if one needs a longer inspection period or includes an appliance request. List each term, deadline, and cash consequence beside the price. Use closed sales for context, recording date, condition, location, size, lot, and concessions; active listings describe competition, not a completed value.
Which evidence can change the answer?
Use recent closed homes for context, but record why each is or is not comparable: location, date, condition, size, lot, and concessions. Active listings show competition, not value.
How do you make the decision before the deadline?
Write a walk-away number before a counteroffer arrives. Then show the same calculation to the lender and agent with every contingency beside it.
