Pricing your home requires expertise and market knowledge.
PRO TIP: Price too high and your home may languish on the market. Price too low and you may short-change yourself.
As the seller, there are steps you can take in the price discovery process including:
- Asking your agent for a Comparable Market Analysis (CMA).
This includes detailed comparisons of homes’ size, age, location and features to determine a reasonable price range for your property. You can then adjust the price based on variables in home and lot size, upgrades, condition and location. - Researching the competition.
Use our website to search online for homes in your area and see how your desired price point compares. You can also attend local open houses to scope out nearby properties for sale. Is your home in better or worse shape? How does your home price compare? Get a friend’s opinion. - Deciding what else you can bring to the negotiation table.
Remember, nearly everything is negotiable in a home sale. Your agent may suggest providing non-price incentives such as: offering to pay closing costs; including furniture or items that caught a buyer’s eye; providing a new-appliance allowance; or fixing damages uncovered in a recent inspection. These stipulations may diffuse a buyer’s uncertainty or allow for wiggle room when you set a price on your home.
