One Smart Way to Find Better Home Deals

Alexander

In this podcast transcript, Realtor® Alex Parmenidez outlines a strategic approach to real estate by focusing on stale listings rather than competitive new entries. While most buyers chase fresh properties, Parmenidez argues that homes sitting on the market for thirty days or longer provide significant negotiation leverage and financial advantages. These overlooked properties often allow for substantial price reductions or seller-paid concessions that can save buyers tens of thousands of dollars. The discussion clarifies that long-standing listings are frequently undervalued gems rather than defective "lemons," often suffering only from poor initial pricing or minor aesthetic issues. By partnering with a local expert, buyers can identify these opportunities to maximize their budget in the Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Massachusetts markets. Ultimately, the source encourages a shift in mindset to find hidden value in the homes that others have ignored.
