Determine how much you can afford to pay and then go higher. For example if you can afford $200 per week, start looking at a figure of say $250 - $260 per week. If you fall into a higher bracket; say $400 per week, start looking at $500.: A L, x2 c- T$ ?- u1 C9 Y e! y

Start ramping up your approach by enquiring about a 2 year term. At this stage you should be getting the agent to phone the owner and coming back to you with a discount.

You could leave the agency for a hour or so ... allows time for the agent to see that you are giving serious consideration to the other properties, as well as theirs.

Don\'t be to automatic in your process. \"Time\" is a wonderful tool in negotiation.

Generally talk a bit more to the agent and raise the question of what discount the owner would accept for a 3 year lease term.

The agent may start to feel as though the negotiating should be coming to an end. Don\'t worry, you are about to bring out the \'Big Guns.\'8 T4 U u) _9 p% M: k0 J" S; i

Tell the Agent that you would consider pre-paying 12 month rent in advance, if the owner would come to the party on the rent. Emphasize, the lack of risk to the owner; a large one off payment in his hand now that could be used to buy more property, etc etc.8 P& D' `, s U9 C: m; L

Depending on how your are going in the reduced rental stakes, in approaching your target base rent price, you may have one further go and offer 18 months or two years rent payment in advance.2 y8 k* L; t1 M' K& P' i

You may hold off with this final offer by leaving the office after the last response.

S) e: b2 M7 W3 L3 eThe agent and owner have given ground on the rent so they may be feeling a bit tender. Let them \'marinate\' for a few hours; maybe even over night, then put the last proposal of the 18 to 24 month prepayment of rent.

Once again, only you can judge how the negotiations are going. Most people want to \'do a deal\' quickly and do not have the patience for a long term, several hours, negotiation.7 P7 K1 D9 A7 B3 j, z! Z

By adding a more and more enticing offer you are making yourself more desirable as a tenant ... you will start to surround yourself with a \"Golden Glow\" of desirability.

Finally, from these negotiation processes, both the owner and the agent will hold you in high regard, because most people admire a good negotiator. |
