No matter what kind of market, (even in strong buyers markets) its important to remember that selling a home is quite often a very emotionally charged event.

 

The buyer usually wont know the reasons for the sale, but they could include divorce, death, financial problems and other reasons which leave the sellers already frazzled and emotionally vulnerable.

 

All the more reason to tread lightly, and treat the seller with respect.

 

And if those reasons are not enough, here is a big one:  Tick the seller off, and maybe they won't sell the house to you.  You never know how someone might react to being insulted, stood up or un-necessarily inconvenienced.
