I have intention to purchase a house at Bandar Sri Damansara, and I was introduced by an agent, with asking price of RM 358,000.
This is also the first time I buy a property. After the review, the house is around 16 years ago, and the seller did not repaint the house when he is selling, so repaint definitely a must. The single storey house only has kitchen extension, and I am looking for more discount on top of the asking price.
My question is, is it normal to ask for 10 to 13% which is around RM 30,000 to 45,000 of discount during negotiation? How much usually the percentage we can go for on top of asking price by agent.
Thank you.
the usual percentage is 5%; if it is more than 5% - it means that the seller has marked up the price pretty high and if he agrees, really means that he is desperate to sell it - because nobody want to buy or because the property got problem?This is also the first time I buy a property.
