Common Misconceptions in Pricing PRICING MISCONCEPTION # 1 - “I Want To Start High, I Can Always Come Down” Unfortunately, the most interest in your property will come in the first month, when there are waiting buyers. After that, the seller waits for buyers to enter the market. It Is Best To Be “Right On The Money” And “Hard On The Price.” Negotiating Room Can Be A Burden PRICING MISCONCEPTION # 2- “They Can Always Make An Offer” Buyers will only look at properties which they think they can buy at, or below “THEIR” price limit. If you price your home too high, potential buyers may never see it and, therefore, not have an opportunity to buy it. PRICING MISCONCEPTION # 3- “My Home Is Better Than The Others, And Should Be Priced Higher” This may be true, but remember sellers are subjective and buyers are objective. Ultimately, both must agree on a price to get the property sold. With my professional expertise, you can place the right price on your property from the beginning.
Negative Effects Of Over-Pricing Your Property • ELIMINATES OFFERS • Buyers write offers on the best priced homes • ATTRACTS THE WRONG PROSPECTS • Prospects flee & suspects show interest • CAUSES APPRAISAL PROBLEMS • Appraisers base value on what comparable properties have sold • OVER – PRICING NOW RESULTS IN UNDER – PRICING LATER • Becomes necessary to drop below market value to compete with “NEW” Listings • LOWERS NET PROCEEDS • Sells for less = You receive less • IT TAKES LONGER TO SELL • Time is an enemy to Sellers • YOU WILL HAVE LESS ACTIVITY • Agents won’t show if they feel your home is priced too high. Also, lowers advertising response • YOU WILL MISS THE PEAK PERIOD • Greatest excitement is when it is first on the market • HELPS THE COMPETITION • Makes the other listings look better
Benefits of Proper Pricing TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEAK PERIOD FASTER SALE LESS INCONVENIENCE TO YOU INCREASED SALESPERSON RESPONSE EXPOSURE TO MORE “PROSPECTS” BETTER RESPONSE TO MARKETING RECEIVE HIGHER OFFERS NET MORE MONEY
Factors That Don’t Effect The ValueOf Your Property Buyers ALWAYS Determine Value! • The value of your property is determined by what a BUYER is willing to pay in today’s market based on comparing your property to others SOLD in your area.
