4S Ranch–Builders not negotiating

[arenter]

I was responding to this post by 4spotentialbuyer,

“I have to agree with NewtoSanDiego. The sales people in 4S can see how desperate you are (or at least it seemed that way to them). Next time, when you talk to them, put on your “poker face” :-)”

We were not desparate buyers and while yes, we were just looking, we may have been a potential sale considering our lease is up in May and had they offered some incentives or at least not given the air of “we don’t need your business” we may have been interested. I would just think the sales office would try a little harder considering the housing situation. Could they afford to be so standoffish and not give a potential customer more attention? I don’t expect them to be kissing my ass, but come on, I’d expect a little more love 🙂

I always find it amazing that people call salespeople rude when they do not find that they are going to give things away.

-We are prequalified and will down more than 20% plus have the income required to qualify for the homes in 4S Ranch at these outrageous prices. We just don’t feel that market justifies paying 750K plus for these homes. There are not many qualified noncontigent buyers left and the point is that the salespeople need to realize that this is not a seller’s market.

I too find that salespeople are not interested in spending much time with you if you’re just looking around. I guess they’ve encountered too many of these folks. It does not matter that you are pre-qualified and have 20% plus down. They are not interested in qualified buyers. They are interested in serious, qualified buyers. By serious, I mean you need to put the $10,000 deposit and make an offer. Then, they will talk numbers (price, incentives, …) and invite you to sit in their office and give you something to drink.

We have asked multiple builders and they have said they are not taking offers. Again, there are many serious buyers sitting on the sidelines waiting to buy however if the attitude from the builders is that they control the prices, then the buyers will remain on the sidelines until a sense of reality kicks in.
