So this old guy had signed a reservation agreement to buy my apartment for $195k but in the last day, after I had everything packed to leave he backed down and decided to pay the $19,500 penalty fee and not buy the property.
Now 40 days later he has contacted my real estate agent telling him he changed his mind and now wants the apartment again and that he is willing to pay the remaining $175k.
I don't know what to do, I'm thinking of asking for $180k for the inconveniences because asking for more sounds kind of abusing. What do you guys think I should do?
Tell him it's no longer for sale, then sell it to someone else for full price
Luis Perry
Make him pay a new $19.5 deposit lol or whatever they call those,
Brody Wright
the sale price is 195k why the fuck would you even care
Parker Powell
He paid a penalty fee, that has nothing to do with the sale. If you're not stressed to sell, tell him the price is the same, $195k.
If you really want to unload tell him you'll do it for $175k with a $175k penalty fee if he backs out again.
Jaxson Nelson
It rly depends on how long its been for sale at 195k. And how desperate you are.
Samuel Miller
if it looks like a decent guy I'd just sell it for that, but then again I'm not a greedy fuck that fucks everyone for money
David Jackson
how much did his delay actually cost you? Prove it and have him pay the difference, but make sure to make him feel like you're understanding and supportive of his first decision to delay the purchase.
Jaxson Evans
Its a penalty for a reason. Tell him you have someone on the hook for full price and if he wants it to fucking pay up. The hassle of dealing with hos wishy washy bullshit is why penalties exist.
Christian Allen
Does his last name echo? Go from there.
Carson Phillips
This. What a blessing you have received. Put the $19.5k in Chainlink and enjoy your generational wealth.
Aiden Ortiz
Find a new buyer.
Sebastian Thompson
Op is probably scared no one will buy his piece of shit shack.
Hey ready to get owned by the market phagget
Kayden Ward
This is what I did, it cost me around 5k to cancel the new lease and rent a truck that I had already paid for, so I asked for 180k and apparently he is ok with it. Lets see what happens.
Brandon Sanders
190k at least
William Johnson
tell him the deals off the table find a new buyer and pocket the 20k
Cooper Morales
burn the apartment down and blame the old guy
James Clark
It had been on sale since november 2019 with many people interested but it went on hold from march to july because of corona, and then this guy signed the agreement and we had to hand over the keys on August 17th and he backed down on the 14th. Since then we had an average of 2 visitors a week interested, but mostly people that needed to sell their current home to have the money, or that weren't sure if they'd get the credit approved. We also had two offers, one for 160k and the other an exchange for a smaller apartment plus 15k.
Fuck off back to your basement

You sound desperate OP. And he knows that. Quit fucking larping about having a line out the door for it. What good does that do advice-wise? Take the money. You are only part Jewish right? No need to go full shekel.
this. you have no obligation to sell the previous idiot at any previously negotiated price
continue to market it is you wish to sell, and sell it and whatever price you want.
Nathan Fisher
Do the right thing user. Dont be a repo jew. Even taking his escrow in the first place is a huge jew move.
Dominic Powell
Take $195k or you are an absolute faggot lmao
Sebastian Hughes
This
Bentley Rogers
He changed his mind twice in a row. Tell him to GTFO
Joshua Gray
Solid plan. Pays to be reasonable sometimes.
Leo Carter
Cuck move - sell it to him for 175 Jew move - sell it to him for 195 Dog move - keep the 20k and ignore him Right move - sell it to him for 195-20, + what it cost you + being screwed money ~ 180-85
