If you receive a lowball offer, I don’t think you should flat out reject it. Here’s what you should do instead.

Let’s say you have your home on the market for $300,000 and an offer comes in at $250,000. You’re hoping to get at least $280,000, so you have every right to decline the offer right then and there.
However, you can also counter this lowball offer. I would typically advise at least trying to counter in this kind of situation. Here’s why. A lot of buyers, especially first-time buyers, have the mentality of “let’s see what can happen” when they’re making a lowball offer. Someone with that mentality will typically bring their price up more than you think after negotiation. They may come up to $260,000 or $275,000 quicker than you think.

This happens pretty frequently. A lowball offer gets countered, then the buyer comes up to an area where the seller would accept it.
