Welcome back to Sunday Pillow Talk 🛋️

Should you price your home a little higher to leave room for negotiation?

It sounds like a good idea, right? But honestly, it can sometimes work against you.

Most buyers know their budget and search within a certain price range. If your home is priced too high, they may scroll right past it without ever coming to see it.

The first few days on the market are important because that’s usually when a new listing receives strong interest. If the price is reduced later, buyers may start wondering why it hasn’t sold—or think there’s even more room to negotiate.

Of course, nobody wants to leave money on the table. The goal isn’t to price your home low—it’s to choose a realistic and competitive price based on the home and the current market.

What would you do? Start a little higher or price it right from the beginning? 😊🏡

👀 Fredericton buyers and sellers—here’s what happened in July: There were 788 homes for sale, 19.4% more than last July. Homes took a median of 28 days to sell, compared with 24 days last year, and sold for an average of 98% of their asking price. For buyers, there are more homes on the market than there were last summer. For sellers, there are more homes competing for buyers’ attention, but properties are still selling fairly close to asking price. Pricing properly from the beginning matters—because putting up a sign and hoping for a bidding war isn’t exactly a marketing plan. 😂

Happy New Brunswick Day! ❤️💛
For me, it’s the people, the small businesses, the winding back roads, the rivers and trails—and the little stops that always come with a story.
This province has character everywhere you look… even a moose and a bear at Bigstop. 😄
Small province. Big heart.
What do you love most about New Brunswick?

Welcome to my first Sunday Pillow Talk 🛋️

Renovate before selling—or save your money?

Honestly? Not every home needs a major renovation before it goes on the market.

If your kitchen is older but clean and everything works, it may be better to leave it alone. Many buyers will want to choose their own colours and finishes anyway.

Start with the little things: fix what’s broken, touch up the paint, declutter and give everything a really good cleaning. Those details can make a bigger difference than you might think.

Before spending thousands, make sure the renovation will actually be worth it.

Have you sold a home before? Did you renovate or sell it as it was—and would you do the same again?
