My offer has been submitted, now what?

A deadline for the seller or agent to respond was specified in your purchase agreement (section 21), and we will wait for a response from the seller.  One of three things will happen:

1. The seller accepts your offer as is

2. The seller counters your offer with specific terms

3. The seller rejects your offer (which can be done in writing or simply by not replying).

If the seller accepts your offer, you will move forward to the next steps (“Offer accepted, now what?”).
