How to collect the deposit for selling a house?

Abstract: deposit is a certain amount of money or substitute paid as a guarantee before the conclusion or performance of the contract, also known as deposit. In the process of second-hand housing transaction, generally both parties will sign a deposit agreement, which is binding on both buyers and sellers, and they must fulfill their obligations according to the contract, otherwise they will bear certain legal consequences. Then, how to collect the deposit for selling a house? First, how to collect the deposit for selling a house?

Some sellers think that the more the deposit, the better, especially those sellers who have not paid off their mortgage, and can use it to solve the mortgage. The amount of deposit is generally based on the negotiation results of buyers and sellers of second-hand houses, but other factors also need to be considered. For sellers, the more deposits, the better.

1. For buyers, the more down payment, the greater the transaction risk. Therefore, property buyers generally hope to pay less deposit, and if there is more deposit, they also hope to use funds to avoid risks.

2. According to China's Guarantee Law, the amount of the deposit cannot exceed 20% of the subject matter of the main contract, and the excess is not protected by law. For example, when the owner sells a house, the contract price is 654.38+00,000 yuan, and the deposit is 200,000 yuan more.

Second, what should the seller pay attention to when collecting the deposit?

1. When collecting the deposit, the seller needs to sign a deposit agreement with the buyer to stipulate the relevant details of the deposit, so as to avoid the failure to identify the responsibilities of both parties in case of breach of contract.

2. Entrusting others to collect deposits requires notarization, lest he "disappear" with the deposits.

If the buyer breaches the contract after paying the deposit, the deposit collected by the seller will not be refunded generally, so don't forget to stipulate the liability for breach of contract and liquidated damages in the contract.

4. Deposits and deposits are different, so don't confuse them.

The effectiveness of the deposit depends on the agreement of both parties. If there is no agreement between the two parties, the nature of "deposit" is mainly advance payment. If property buyers do not want to buy, the "deposit" as an advance payment can be refunded.

"Deposit" is a form of guarantee, which is used to guarantee the performance of the contract. If the party paying the deposit fails to perform its contractual obligations, it has no right to ask the other party to return it, while if the party receiving the deposit fails to perform its contractual obligations, it must return the deposit twice.

3. How to price your second-hand house?

1, look at the floor first. If there are multiple floors, the unit price of floors 3-4 is the highest, followed by the bottom and top floors of floors 2 and 5. Generally speaking, the price difference between the best and worst floors in the same building is between 200-400 yuan. Of course, due to different personal habits and preferences, it is another matter. If it is a high-rise or small high-rise, the price of 7-9 floors can be used as the benchmark price, which is expensive and cheap, and the price difference of each floor is about 50- 150 yuan; Generally speaking, the price of the top floor is not necessarily the highest, and the price from the top floor to the second floor is often the highest. On the same floor, the price of the middle set is often used as the benchmark price. The eastern set is the most expensive in the southeast, with a price difference of about 3%, while the western set is second in the southwest, with a price difference of about 2%. Houses in the same community will inevitably have landscape differences. Generally speaking, the house facing the central courtyard is quiet, with good air and the most expensive. Houses facing the street have high noise, poor air and the lowest price.

2. Housing area. Generally speaking, a house with a square meter of 100 is the most popular and suitable for a family of three or four. However, a large house is not easy to sell because the total house price restricts the purchasing power of consumers. Therefore, the unit price of a house of more than 200 square meters should be relatively low under certain circumstances. And duplex houses can be priced according to the benchmark price because of their pattern advantages or terraces.

3. It is the apartment type, which is also the main reason why some houses are small but look spacious, while others are just the opposite, not small but look crowded. In addition to obvious defects, as long as there is a master bedroom facing south and a living room with good lighting and convection, it can sell for a good price; At the same time, the bright bathroom is more valuable than the dark bathroom, and the big master bedroom in the living room is more valuable than the small room. Compact and practical areas are correspondingly more expensive. It is suggested that both the seller and the buyer should finally determine the appropriate house price after fully weighing the various conditions of the house to ensure the normal transaction of the house.

4. Decoration and maintenance status, which is a difficult concept to define. There is a big difference between not decorating and decorating. Even if there is decoration, the year, degree, style and maintenance condition of decoration will also affect the final price. After you decide to sell, you'd better clean or renovate the house effectively, which will greatly increase the selling point of your house. The selling price can be increased in the same proportion, which greatly speeds up the sales.

5. Bonus with the room is very common in the market. Owners will buy new furniture and electrical appliances after changing houses or emigrating, so used furniture and electrical appliances will be packed with the house. Items attached to the house can be used as a condition for negotiating the price of buying a house, but it is difficult to decide whether the buyers will accept it. Therefore, if there are items packaged with the house before pricing, the price of the items sold with the house is different from the reserve price quotation and transaction price of non-substitute items.
