Attention, Sellers! The Price Must be Right

Our client: "Should we price it high to see what happens?"⁣

Our answer: We already know what's going to happen...⁣

You’ve got 3 options when it comes to pricing your home for the market: above, at, or under market value.⁣

We know pricing it high can be tempting, but keep in mind these pros and cons for each option:⁣

Above market value:⁣

+ If you have to receive a certain amount for the home⁣
- It will take longer to sell⁣
- The more days it's on the market, the worse it looks to prospects⁣
- The home may not appraise by the buyer's lender, back to negotiations⁣

At market value:⁣

+ No appraisal issues⁣
+ Buyers and agents will recognize a fair price⁣
+ Will appear on more relevant buyer searches⁣

Under market value:⁣

+ If you have to receive a certain amount for the home⁣
- It will take longer to sell⁣
- The more days it's on the market, the worse it looks to prospects⁣
- The home may not appraise by the buyer's lender, back to negotiations⁣

If you'd like to see recent stats on homes like yours, just reach out. Pretty sure you'll come to the same conclusion as we did — pricing just under market is the way to go!⁣
