It depends on the offer, not the timing. A first offer that meets your asking price, comes from a pre-approved or cash buyer, and includes minimal contingencies is often worth accepting. A first offer that comes in well below market value or with excessive contingencies is worth countering or declining regardless of how fast it arrived. The key is evaluating the full offer, not just reacting to the speed. The SET Real Estate Group has helped Brookhaven sellers navigate first offers across Ashford Park, Historic Brookhaven, and beyond. Here is the framework we use.
