AI Prompt for a Counter-Offer Rationale
Reach for this prompt the moment a buyer's offer lands and your seller wants to push back with a credible number rather than a gut figure. The strongest output ties the counter to recent comps, property condition, and current demand in three tight bullets, giving the buyer's agent something defensible to take back to their client.
You are an expert real estate negotiator. Write a clear, persuasive rationale my seller can use to justify their counter-offer to the buyer's agent. Anchor on recent comps, condition, and demand. Tone: firm, professional, non-emotional. Use 3 short bullet justifications plus a one-line closing ask. Keep under 180 words. Avoid Fair Housing-risky language about any party.
Fill in these
[LIST PRICE][BUYER OFFER][COUNTER PRICE][KEY VALUE DRIVERS]
Example output
"Our counter at $X is supported by three closed comps within 0.3 miles, all over $Y; recent updates to the kitchen and roof; and steady showing demand. We're confident this reflects fair market value."
Pro tips
- Lead with your two strongest value drivers — buyers' agents skim, so front-load the proof.
- Keep the tone non-emotional; a firm, factual rationale negotiates better than an indignant one.
- Avoid any language about either party's circumstances to stay Fair Housing compliant.
