Do seller concessions lower my home's sale price?

Seller concessions do not change the contract sale price itself; they show up as a separate credit toward the buyer's closing costs, so the recorded sale price stays what was agreed. The net amount a seller walks away with is lower once a concession is factored in, even though the sale price on paper looks the same. Joel Boss factors likely concessions into pricing strategy from the start so a seller understands the real number, not just the headline price.
