How do I get buyers to submit cleaner offers?

Set the expectation early through your listing agent: communicate that you prioritize closing certainty over top-line price. When running a best-and-final, explicitly state that structural strength - waived contingencies, appraisal gap coverage, deposit size, and timeline - will weigh as heavily as price in your decision. Buyers who know you are evaluating deal quality alongside price will compete on terms, not just dollars.
