I hear it all the time… “let’s start at the price I want and then we can lower it later, right?”
Here’s the facts:
➡️ The longer a listing sits on the market the lower your offers will be and the less leverage a seller has
➡️ A listing will always get the MOST exposure in the first week
➡️ Pricing properly improves a seller’s chances of multiple offers, better leverage, and higher net outcome
➡️ The market decides the price. Not the seller, not their realtor. If you’re not ready to meet the market where it is, it’s best to wait.
The example listing in this post went under contract in 12 days (the current average is around 65). The seller priced appropriately for the market and beat out other listings that didn’t.
