If the offer came out of nowhere and the initial offer was $1,000 then you should quit the business if you consider accepting it. You will leave way too much money on the table in future deals, and you will have too many regrets when you figure that out.

...Or you could counter and never hear from them. I would accept the offer, since the name is just mediocre. It depends on your business model though. I find it best to make a profit, but leave room so the purchaser can still make a profit as well.

On the other hand, the domain can be worth more to an end-user, i.e. a real estate agent. There are some real estate firms which use domains that contain the term "land broker(s)". It is your decision, but you can get more than $1,000!

Of course you can always get more from an end user..but do you want to spend 10 hours of your time to find an interested end user just to make an extra 200 dollars? Doubtful.

Not an extra $200, but an extra $x,xxx. That's what I do all the day! ;)

If there is no end-user interested in buying this domain at this time I would hold out for more, because the domain can only go up in value. My 2 cents.

The name is a fantastic name ... it is worth alot more than $1000 ... Land is big business ... big business!

I would be tempted to buy it off the seller for more than $1000 but right now I need the money to pay off my land ... not joking!

"Land Brokers" is not a common term. Most "land deals" are completed through Real Estate Agents, using the the MLS. I would sell without hesitation...

The majority of the people saying it's worth much more are not located in the US. The term may be more popular elsewhere, but I've never seen the term used in the Real Estate section of my local newspaper, which is a major metropolitan area....

IMHO it's worth MUCH more than $1k. Friend of mine was round this morning asking me to help him find plots of land for sale here in England and Wales on the internet. I kid you not!

why not get it appraised professionally. If it's worth way more, just keep it for few years.

If the term 'land brokers' is common elsewhere I still think the domain has got value.

The domain in its singular forum, does have search count:

385 land broker

Is it receiving any type-ins?

congratulations!

So how'd you end up getting the bigger deal? Hold out? or just found someone else?

Someone who worked for Sedo contacted me with a serious buyer. I told him I won't be selling it for another few weeks because I was going to get it ready to market it. I guess they really wanted it because they didn't want me to market it to anyone else. Said if I sold it to them that day they would pay me x amount. Lucky timing I guess.
