home is seen, the more quickly it will sell. Many real estate agents provide clients with dozens of homes to consider without a clear picture of what the buyer wants. Low-interest traffic can be heavy and burdensome on the seller's time, energy, and resources. Since a showing can take an hour or more, finding an interested buyer is what matters most. The home will be shown to many more uninterested buyers than interested ones. Ideally, your property would be shown to serious buyers only. However, many "Sunday afternoon window shoppers" exist in the real estate business. There is no calculable certainty in setting a home's value. There can be vast differences between the seller's assessed price, the asking or listing price (market value), and the price at which the home sells (sale price). Let's turn to what the homeowner/seller can do to elicit offers at, or even above, the listing price in a competitive market. A good grasp of market trends can help you maximize your investment. So, before making any decisions, carefully evaluate the present state of the market.
