Sellers of properties are not obligated to accept offers presented to them. While an offer serves as an expression of interest to purchase a property, the seller retains the right to evaluate the terms and decide whether or not to accept the offer. Several factors influence this decision, including the offer’s price, contingencies, timeline, and the seller’s personal preferences. It’s important for potential buyers to understand that a seller’s acceptance is not guaranteed and that negotiation is a common part of the real estate process.
