Nearly half of US home sellers now offering incentives

Original: From cruises to $20,000, almost half of home sellers are offering incentives to unload properties

Almost half of home sellers are offering incentives to attract buyers, ranging from cash concessions of up to $20,000 to perks like free cruises, according to Fortune. The trend reflects a cooling housing market in which buyers have regained leverage, prompting sellers to sweeten deals rather than cut list prices outright.

Why now: High mortgage rates and a slowing housing market are making it harder to sell homes, so sellers are turning to unusual incentives.
