This is up from roughly 43% a year ago, reflecting a shift in buyer leverage as more inventory and lighter competition reshape the national market. What does this mean for you? Concessions can take many forms: help with repairs, assistance with closing costs, or even mortgage-rate buydowns\u2014all strategies that lower your total purchase expenses beyond simple price reductions. In practice, sellers are getting creative by pairing price cuts with closing-cost credits or rate buydowns, making negotiation tables more flexible than ever. Nationally, about 16% of homes sold in Mid-Q3 included both a price reduction and a concession, giving buyers extra avenues for reducing entry costs. Whether you\u2019re navigating residential or commercial real estate in Middle Tennessee, understanding these evolving trends\u2014and how to leverage them\u2014can make a real difference in your purchase or sale. My focus has always been to blend financial insight with skilled negotiation to help clients seize opportunities like these.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seller concessions have just reached a new high across the US, with about 45% of home sales in the rolling three-month period ending Mid-Q3 involving some form of seller assistance\u2014the highest share seen at this time of year since at least 2020.
