PRICING
YOUR HOME TO SELL IN ATLANTA!
You want to get the
best price for your house, of course. But how do you do
that? You want to price it to sell and you want to
get as much as you can, and you don’t want to be greedy.
So how do you settle on the best asking price?
Pricing your
home correctly from the beginning represents one of
the most important factors in the selling your home.
Our experience has shown us that if you price your home TOO
HIGH, it may remain on the market for a long
period of time - and could ultimately sell for less money
than if it were priced properly from the start.
If you price
your home TOO LOW, you
may sell it quickly, but for less money than it is worth.
Clearly, determining the correct price in which to sell
your home is very important in maximizing its value to
you. For results that count, contact Jim &

Where
Should You PRICE YOUR HOME?
There are three
main pricing strategies - pricing your home: above,
at, or below its market value.
-
Priced
above market value Sellers like to
price their home high, thinking that someone just
might pay it. That's unlikely - buyers shopping for a
home know exactly what the market is like, and won't
be fooled into paying more than it's worth.
-
Priced
at market value Always a good
strategy - that's what your home is worth!
-
Worried
about setting the wrong price? Ask
to see the "estimates of value" collected
from agents visiting your home during the broker's
open house. These estimates come from agents who work
with buyers every day, and who know what buyers are
willing to pay for homes. When twenty or thirty values
are plotted on graph paper (or simply averaged), your
home's true value to buyers will become quite clear.
If your home isn't within 5% of the average value,
it's overpriced, and the asking price should be
dropped. Don't let your home become an old, tired
listing. It will eventually sell for less than you
would have received if you'd priced it properly!
Ellen & I
Don't play pricing games when listing a home. We
list our homes at the right price. Everyone
benefits! This ensures that our listings sell in the
shortest time for the highest price! We feel this is
the best approach! Unlike other agents that will
"BUY
YOUR LISTING!" (Listing your home
at a higher price even if it unrealistic, because the
agent knows that you need to sell.)
They know
that your personal needs will dictate the necessity to
reduce later. Within a few weeks of listing
your home at the higher price, the agent will start
approaching you to reduce the price. How mean!
We feel that this is emotional blackmail.
