You can still get top dollar if you price your home correctly.


If you’ve been paying attention to housing market news, you know the real estate market has shifted a lot in the past year. However, even though we are in a shifting market, you can still get top dollar for your home. Fortunately, we’re still in a seller’s market, but you have to be careful about how you price your home. If you make the wrong move, your house could sit on the market for a long time. 

In a correcting market like ours, it is more important than ever not to price your home too high. You can underprice your home, but you need to be careful with that. Look at your area’s market and determine if similar properties are going to compete with yours. Also, only go below market price if prices are stable or going up, not if they’re going down. You want to catch people’s attention but not make them think something is wrong with your home. 

One of the easiest ways real estate professionals can tell if your home is priced incorrectly is if it’s getting a good number of showings and offers. If you don’t get any offers within the first several weeks, you may need to consider changing your price. 

A real estate professional will give you the necessary advice on how to price in this market.

No matter which strategy you choose, one of the most important things you can do is work with a real estate professional. They will be constantly checking comps and your micro market to make sure your price is ideal and give you the necessary advice. Then you can take full advantage of the current market.
