Tulsa Realtors tell Tulsa home buyers – it’s OKAY to pay a FAIR price
Tulsa home buyers, it’s OKAY to pay a FAIR price for a home you love! Most Tulsa Realtors work with both home buyers and home sellers, so we see both sides of the coin.
Tulsa Realtors who work with home buyers thoroughly understand what home buyers are looking for – the majority want a home that is move-in ready, updated, open and maintained. So when Tulsa Realtors work with home sellers to prepare their home for market, we encourage them to update, make repairs and remove possible buyer objections.
MOST Tulsa Realtors also encourage home sellers to price their property competitively. Tulsa Realtors don’t get paid until their listing sells, and we understand the ramifications of an overpriced, stagnant listing.
Tulsa Realtors can provide home buyers with a lot of pertinent information to help in deciding an amount to offer on a home. We can generally determine the amount paid for the house, amount owed on it, improvements made and what comparable properties in the area have sold for.

If after digesting all this information, you discover that the list price is FAIR, be prepared to pay full price or close to it. If your brother Vinnie from Minnesota tells you that you should pay $20,000 less than list price REGARDLESS, please tell Vinnie that Tulsa is not the same real estate market!
Buyers and Sellers in a real estate transaction don’t have to be adversaries, and a Tulsa home seller who priced their property competitively shouldn’t be punished. If you love the house and it meets your family’s needs, go ahead and offer a FAIR price.
And then tell your brother Vinnie that he needs to move to Tulsa and buy a home here too!
I totally agree with this post. Realtors do see both sides of the coin. Like you said, “Buyers and Sellers in a real estate transaction don’t have to be adversaries.” Thanks for sharing!
I agree too… but it seems that all-too-often Buyers are looking to steal properties from sellers. Whether that’s due to media-hype of it being a “buyer’s market” or lack of consumer confidence… sometimes it doesn’t matter how well we educate them!
Thanks for your post!
