When It Comes to Real Estate, Negotiation Is Everything
Whether you're buying your dream home or selling a luxury property, one skill often makes or breaks the deal: negotiation.
In today’s Phoenix metro housing market—where buyer incentives, seller concessions, and pricing power constantly shift—having a skilled negotiator in your corner is essential. That’s where Arnaud Lavigne comes in.
Why Negotiation Matters in Real Estate
In real estate, the right negotiation strategy can help you:
✅ Save thousands on purchase price or upgrades
✅ Navigate inspection reports and repair requests smoothly
✅ Maximize your selling price without losing the deal
✅ Win over competing offers in a multiple-bid scenario
✅ Secure favorable terms on close of escrow, contingencies, and more
But it’s not just about being firm—it’s about being strategic, empathetic, and well-prepared. A good negotiator balances market knowledge, timing, and communication to move both parties forward.
