As summer winds down, buyers are still browsing—but they’re also watching for deals. If your listing has been sitting a bit longer than expected, consider offering strategic incentives that spark action without reducing your list price.
Here are a few low-cost ideas:
-
Closing cost credits to help with out-of-pocket expenses
-
Pre-paid HOA fees or home warranties
-
Gift cards to home stores for future upgrades
-
Flexible closing dates to accommodate moving schedules
Even something as simple as leaving behind a newer washer and dryer or offering a deep-clean service can make your listing more memorable. The key is to match your incentive to what buyers in your price range actually value.
These little “extras” show buyers you’re motivated but not desperate—and that can be just the nudge they need to make an offer.
