JOSH BEAUPRE

Realtor®



My name is Josh Beaupre and I am a realtor with Royal Realty at Garden Realty.
Regardless of how we cross paths and your intentions, I am well prepared to provide

you with an unmatched level of service.



I have lived in Connecticut for 18 years and having lived all across the state
throughout that time I am well equipped to find exactly what you’re looking for. I
have a wealth of negotiating experience ready to bring to the table for you and pride

myself on honesty and transparency with everyone I encounter. I know how
important it is to have a strong foundation of trust and I look forward to sharing

these values with you.



When I’m not working with my clients I love enjoying my time at home working on
my own Castle. I also love traveling and experiencing new food and cultures as my
families roots in other countries has always driven me to appreciate all aspects of the

world.

Making Competitive Offers

different ways to make a competitive offer

Increase the Purchase Price

When submitting an offer you should be coming in at your strongest, this shows the sellers
that you are serious about purchasing their home. Talk to your Realtor about utilizing an
escalation clause which will allow you to get the best value without putting it all on the
table. Many sellers are worried that an appraisal may come in low, if it is within your
financial capacity it may be bennificial to guarantee whatever cash you can in this event.
An additional way to increase the strength of your offer is to increase the earnest money
deposit amount. This shows the sellers that are you a serious buyer.

Costing Cost Assistance

Closing costs fees that are due at closing that contribute to loan processing, title search
fees, prepaids and more that both the buyer and seller have to pay. When looking to make
the most competitive offer, if it is within your financial capacity, it is most aggressive to not
ask for any closing cost assistance. If you need this, it's best to incerease the price of the
home by atleast the amount that you need. Another less common but really aggressive
approach is to offer to pay the sellers closing costs, however keep in mind that this will have
to be cash brought to closing day.

Home Inspections

In most cases we do not advise to forgo a home inspection, however if you are purchasing a
condominium or very well maintained home this may be an option to make your offer more
competitive. You can make your home inspection "For Informational Purposes Only" which
would allow you to walk away with the right to receive your earnest money deposit back if
something major comes up, however the sellers are not obligated to repair issues that are
found.

Arrange for a Quick Closing with Minimal Contingencies

Every seller and situation is different however many are looking for a speedy closing. If this
is the case work with your Realtor & local lender to make sure this can be accommodated.
Try to plan to have minimal contingencies such as the sale of another home, if this cannot
be within your financial constraints get your home listed and under contract to make the
seller feel more comfortable with this. This could also mean choosing a loan with little to
no contingencies, such as a conventional loan, if it is within your financial means.
