Hiring a Realtor from Highest-Price Suggestion
Choosing a real estate agent simply because they suggested a higher price for your home than other agents is not in your best interest. With my 41 years in real estate, I feel like I can provide you with real numbers and back it up with a solid marketing plan. I am very knowledgeable of the local area and will gladly answer questions or concerns regarding the entire selling process. I will offer sales data and a strategic listing price, not the highest price.
Subjective Pricing
Selling your home is a business transaction between a qualified buyer and yourself. If you have enjoyed living in your home for years but have decided to move on, don’t let emotional attachments to the home affect how you price it. The most objective price will come from the CMA provided by me. Memorable moments spent in your home are priceless, but they do not add to the selling price. It is also unrealistic to add dollars because of the labor spent making the house into the home you desired. By focusing on the CMA results and maintaining a firm, strictly business attitude, you can keep emotions at bay.
First Day High-Price Blues
The most crucial time for your home is the first ten days on the market. Once your home is on the MLS, you will see how much interest is generated. If your price is too high, buyers will pass you by because the home is out of their price range or out of kilter in the market area. By the time you decide to lower the price, they have moved on to other properties. As your home sits on the market, buyers will wonder why the home has not sold and conclude that it’s undesirable in some way. Let me make this very clear. Pricing your home will be left up to you, and I will support you every wain y I know-how.
