Don't Negotiate Like This (Honest Realtor Talk)","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":240,"description":"Good morning — my name is David McAtee, and I'll be straight with you: some of the ways folks try to negotiate when buying a home end up costing them the house they really wanted. In this episode, I sit down with a cup of hot black coffee and talk through the negotiating mistakes I see buyers make over and over again here in Tyler and across East Texas — the ones that blow up deals, insult sellers, and leave good people walking away empty-handed.\r\n\r\nI don't blow any smoke, and I don't have a crystal ball, but I've got real market analysis and years of watching how honest negotiation actually works. We'll talk about lowball offers that go too far, nickel-and-diming after inspection, letting your emotions run the show, playing games with your earnest money, and trying to \"win\" instead of trying to get the home. I'll show you why treating the seller like an enemy is the fastest way to lose the property — and why a straight, respectful offer backed by real numbers gets you a lot further.\r\n\r\nThis is about serving you, not selling you. Because I serve, I don't sell — I've never sold a piece of property in my life. My job is to put you first, tell you the truth even when it's not what you want to hear, and help you buy smart. And when we close? We celebrate over a ribeye.\r\n\r\nWhen you're ready to buy or sell in Tyler and East Texas, give me a call at 903-216-6885 or find me at marketmovesetx.com. Let me serve you — the selling takes care of itself.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/hAVrdMfg2Csm2xlosAyWD0E0KmeA80877Cj89rLyXZM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lMWU3/YTI3OWRlYzRkYjgx/NmU3MTdkYzdiNmQ0/ZWFiNC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
