Buyer: Hi, what a beautiful townhouse you have!  
Seller: It's super swanky.
Buyer: It is in a great location and would be perfect for my family.  Due to some unexpected expenses though, the price is quite steep for us.  Are you willing to negotiate on price?
Seller: I'm willing to negotiate, but if we can't come to a deal, someone else is going to snap this place up in a heartbeat.
Buyer: Are the utilities included in the price?
Seller: All utilities would be your responsibility. There are included amenities though, like a swimming pool.
Buyer: Okay. Right now the best I can offer since utilities are my responsibility is $3870. 
Seller: $3870 is fair, but a little below market value. If you can do $3950, we can talk about having you move in.
