Braulio Hernandez REALTOR® - EXPIRED: A GUIDE FOR SELLING HOMES OTHERS COULDN'T SELL

COMMON SELLER MIS ELLER MISTAKES TO AVOID

The key to successfully selling a home the first time it hits the market is to avoid the common mistakes that many sellers make:

PRICING MISTAKES

The first mistakes sellers make are price-related. That's why this list of common seller pricing mistakes can help you avoid the problems that come with selling your home. If pricing was simple and straightforward, you wouldn't need help pricing your home correctly. Save time and money by avoiding these costly mistakes.

Guessing vs Researching

Basing your home price on what the neighbor down the street listed his home for isn’t a reliable method. Nothing loses potential buyers faster than an overpriced home. Subsequent price lowering makes it look like you’re getting desperate to sell, which will increase low-ball offers. However, you do not want to underprice from the beginning. A lower listing price may decrease the time to sell a bit, but you might leave several thousand dollars on the table. Learn how to price your house the right way, based on research. The Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) is your best source for setting an asking price. If a home in your area sells for a low price, don’t assume yours is worth the same amount. That home may have had condition issues or a personal problem that required a very quick sale. Your home might have something to offer that the other one did not. Let the Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) be your guide, along with the advice of a real estate professional.
