sellers later into the sales process than they really need to. If people are convinced that the property they are about buy is an answer to some of their problems, they do not mind paying a higher price for it. At the same time, though, be sure to use this option cautiously so that you do not end up harming the deal yourself—going too high too suddenly or in the wrong place and time can cause a lot more harm than good. You must also know when to lower the price of the property listed. When there is a plunge in stock prices, home prices also tend to drop to rock bottom. Sometimes, a plunge that only took a single day to drop might take years to recover. Therefore, at times, it might be necessary to wait out the falling market in the real estate arena until a balance between supply and demand is realized. If the market is falling and you are miserable trying to sell your property, then it may be a good idea to lower the price early and get out of the falling market as soon as possible, taking a quick, cheap sale before the average prices drop further than you are willing to go. Smart sellers lower their prices during a falling trend and complete their deals quickly before too much damage is done. Prices of properties in newer subdivisions might fall lower than they are worth, so selling for less than you might like is still a better option
