RESEARCH LOCAL MARKET TRENDS:
Understanding local market trends will help both parties gauge the appropriateness of offering or requesting credits, ensuring they align with prevailing practices.
SEEK PROFESSIONAL ADVICE:
It’s essential to seek guidance from experienced real estate agents or legal professionals to ensure the proper documentation and negotiation of credits.
BALANCE YOUR INTERESTS:
Negotiate credits that strike a fair balance between the interests of both parties, making the deal beneficial for everyone involved.
BE REALISTIC:
Set realistic expectations when negotiating credits, considering the property’s condition, local market conditions, and the financial capabilities of both parties.
Remember, credits can be a valuable tool in real estate transactions, but they should be used judiciously and thoughtfully to ensure a successful and mutually beneficial deal.
If you have children or are pregnant and a landlord refuses to rent to you, requires a higher security deposit, limits the use of facilities, or says you can only live in certain areas of a housing complex... that could be discrimination. And housing discrimination because of familial status is against the law.
If you believe you may be a victim of housing discrimination, contact HUD or your local Fair Housing Center:
