How Do Counter Offers Work on Bōde?
One of the biggest advantages of Bōde’s offer feature is the ability to negotiate entirely online — making it easy to submit, counter, and accept offers with full transparency and efficiency.
Here’s How the Counter Offer Process Works
-
Buyer Submits the Offer
Once a buyer submits an offer, the seller has three options:- Accept the offer
- Decline the offer
- Submit a counter offer
-
Seller Reviews and Edits
If the seller chooses to counter, they can adjust any unsatisfactory terms, including:- Price
- Possession date
- Terms and conditions
- They may also add seller-specific conditions
-
New Expiration Time
The seller sets a new expiration deadline and submits the counter offer. -
Buyer Notification
The buyer receives an email alert letting them know that a counter offer has been submitted. -
Changes Are Highlighted
When the buyer opens the counter offer, all edits are clearly highlighted for easy review. -
Buyer Responds
The buyer can then:- Accept the counter and confirm the deal
- Make further changes and submit another counter offer
This back-and-forth can continue until both parties reach an agreement — all from within the Bōde platform, with a clear audit trail of every step.
