Pricing Your Home To Sell

Richard — Fri, 16 Mar 2012 13:47:14 +0000

It is easy to put a price on your home without doing the necessary market estimates, but if this price is too high and the prospective purchaser does not find the value compared to the prices of other houses in the area, the house will not sell! Eventually this will result in a reduced sale price.

YOUR HOME SHOULD NEVER BECOME “STALE”

It is difficult to correctly price a home without first determining its value. As a RE/MAX agent, we will recommend a marketing price which is established by doing a Comparative Market Analysis of similar homes sold recently in your area. Remember, the purchaser in the market place will ultimately determine the value! Only he/she knows what he/she is prepared to pay.

Every property has more than 1 price:

What you as the seller thinks its worth
What the agent values it at
What the buyer is prepared to offer
The final settlement price

The question is: HOW SALEABLE DO YOU WANT TO MAKE YOUR HOME? – The Choice is Yours!

Property will not be abused as a “springboard”
