Professional
appraisers sum up their entire body of knowledge in three
words - "Buyers Make Value."
How much is your home
worth today?
Pricing
This process generally begins with a determination of
a reasonable asking price. As your real estate agent,
we can give you up-to-date information on what is happening
in the marketplace and the price, financing, terms, and
condition of competing properties.
These are key factors in getting your property sold at
the best price, quickly and with minimum hassle. Click

When listing your property for sale, do yourself a favor
and tell your agent that you trust their professional
opinion regarding price. This will allow your agent to
be candid with you, which can mean selling your home at
market value now instead of several months from now. Most
agents simply don’t want to tell the seller the
true value of the home, if it’s obvious the seller
wants more than it’s worth. By allowing your agent
to be completely honest with you, you’ll save time
and money. Consider the market analysis carefully with
your agent… The numbers should make just as much
sense to you as they do to your agent, and the appraiser.
Remember! Your home is worth as much as someone
is willing to pay for it. Sometimes the home is simply
worth more to the seller than it is to the buying public.
If the property has been on the market for more than a
4-5 weeks, you've been given a clear message that the
property may not be worth what you're asking for it. This
is particularly true if there haven't been many prospects
coming to see it. What you do at that point depends on
whether you really need to sell, and whether you're working
with a time limit. If you're not really motivated to move
soon, you can always wait - years if necessary - and hope
inflation will catch up with the price you want. The problem
is that in that time, your home begins to feel shopworn.
Buyers become suspicious of a house that's been for sale
for a long time. If, however, you really do need to sell,
your agent should understand the marketplace well enough
to price it right. . There's no point in saying, "We
simply can't sell our house." Anything will sell
if the price is right. |
