Negotiation AI gives you a personalised price-negotiation playbook — opening anchor, BATNA, walk-away threshold and scripted talking points — based on the property's asking price, your target, market context and counter-party type (owner, broker, builder). Use it before any site visit, call or counter-offer.
Resale residential: typically 5–12% off asking. Builder inventory: 3–8% + freebies (parking, club, GST). Distressed sales and end-of-quarter builder pushes can stretch to 15%.
End of financial quarter (Mar, Jun, Sep, Dec) for builders. Festive offers (Sep–Nov). For resale: when a seller has carried inventory > 90 days on PropyMart.
Direct-with-owner is faster and avoids brokerage. Use the broker only as a relay if the owner is uncomfortable negotiating directly.
Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement — the second-best property on your shortlist. A strong BATNA gives you the confidence to walk away from a stretched price.
Frame the offer around concrete comparables ("3 similar flats in the same building closed at ₹X last quarter") rather than a percentage discount. Data anchors land softer than gut numbers.
No. Once disclosed, every shortlisted property will magically cost exactly that. Share a range 10–15% below your real max.
Only if the property fails due-diligence (title issue, encumbrance, OC pending). Otherwise the agreement is binding and walking out forfeits the earnest money (usually 10%).
For a focused buyer + motivated seller — 7–14 days from first offer to agreement. Anything longer and the seller will field competing offers; close fast once aligned on price.
