One of my contacts sent me this article about home builder's incentives in the U.K.
This got me to wondering what is the most radical or unusual incentive you have encountered in your market? This can be a new home builder or an existing home seller.
In my area, most builders are offering "free" granite counter tops or a "free" basement or someting along those lines. A few builders are paying 1 to 3 percent more commission to Realtors than in a good market. I think most buyers are smart enough to just expect the property to be priced right rather than be influenced by free stuff.
