As a part of Keller Williams Realty, I have come across these this piece and find it to be rather valuable to Sellers. These are also items that come up regularly with my own clients, so I thought I would share this here. Not too much to read in a day, more to come! Chris
Myth #1: You should always price your home high and negotiate down.
Truth: Pricing too high can be as bad as pricing too low. If you list too high, you'll miss out on buyers looking in the price range where your home should be. Offers may not even come in, because buyers who are interested in your home are scared off by the price and won't even take the time to look at it. By the time you correct the price and list your home at its fair market value, you will have lost that window of opportunity when your home draws the most attention from the public and real estate agents; i.e. the first 30 days that it is on the market. A well-trained real estate agent who looks out for your best interests will consult with you on your home’s fair market value and different pricing strategies for the current market.
Next up: Myth #2...
