Compare multiple offers on my listing side by side
A net-proceeds and risk comparison of competing offers, plus counteroffer and multiple-counter options for the seller.
The prompt
Help me compare multiple offers on my seller's property.
List price and seller priorities: [e.g. highest net, certainty, leaseback, closing date]
Seller's costs: [MORTGAGE PAYOFF, COMMISSIONS, TRANSFER TAXES, ESTIMATED CLOSING COSTS]
Offers: [FOR EACH: PRICE, ESCALATION CLAUSE AND CAP, FINANCING TYPE, DOWN PAYMENT, EARNEST MONEY, APPRAISAL GAP COVERAGE, INSPECTION / APPRAISAL / FINANCING / SALE-OF-HOME CONTINGENCIES AND DEADLINES, SELLER CONCESSIONS, CLOSING DATE, POSSESSION, PRE-APPROVAL OR PROOF OF FUNDS, LENDER]
Analyze:
1. A comparison table: Offer | Price | Seller concessions | Estimated net | Financing | Contingencies | Days to close | Risk level.
2. Estimated net proceeds for each, showing the math. Use only my numbers; mark gaps [CONFIRM].
3. Risk factors that can kill or reduce a deal: low down payment with no appraisal gap coverage, FHA/VA appraisal conditions, home-sale contingencies, long inspection periods, unverified funds, unfamiliar lenders.
4. How each escalation clause would actually play out against the other offers.
5. Two or three strategies: accept one, counter one, or a multiple counteroffer, and what to ask for.
6. Questions to ask buyer agents or lenders before deciding.
Keep it neutral; the seller decides. Remind me to follow my state's rules on disclosing offer terms and handling multiple counteroffers, and to check with my broker.

How this prompt is built
This prompt follows the RTF structure (Role, Task, Format). RTF tells the model who to be, what to do and what shape the answer should take. It is the quickest structure that still gives noticeably better results than a bare request.
