Received Multiple Offers? Here’s What to Do
This is a fantastic position to be in as a seller.
If you’re receiving multiple offers through the Bōde platform, you can compare them side-by-side on your

Not All Offers Are Created Equal
It’s important to carefully review the terms and conditions in each offer.
Look beyond just the price — consider:
- Financing conditions
- Inspection timelines
- Possession dates
- Buyer representation (self-represented vs. agent-represented)
Pro tip: If a buyer is self-represented, you don’t pay buy-side commission.
So they may offer slightly less — and you still walk away with more money than if a commission were involved.
Handling Multiple Offers Strategically
- Let buyers know you have received other offers
- Set a clear deadline for submitting their best offer
- You’re not obligated to reveal what would “win,” but you may choose to guide buyers if you wish
Very Important: Accepting Offers
You may:
- Accept one offer
- Accept a backup offer with a seller’s condition
Required seller’s condition for backups:
“The acceptance of this offer is subject to the collapse of the already accepted offer.”
Do not accept two offers unconditionally at the same time.
