SETTING YOUR PRICE in real estate

How do you Determine Your Asking Price?


  • You obviously want to sell your house for the highest possible price. You may even have a number in mind. But, how do you determine if that number is reasonable? 

  • You may be concerned that: 
  • · If you list your house too high, few buyers, if any, will see it. 
  • · If your price is too low, you could end up leaving thousands of dollars on the table. 
  • Don’t worry. I’m an expert at creating a pricing strategy that will pique the interest of qualified buyers – and set the stage to get you the highest sale price possible. I’m also a specialist in the local market. I know what properties like yours sell for, and can get yours sold at the high end of that range. I begin by getting to know your property and all its desirable features. Then I make some calculations to determine its Current Market Value. That value is based, in large part, on what similar houses in the area have sold for recently. Of course, buyers won’t pay for the sentimental value you place on your house. But special features such as hardwood floors, a newly renovated kitchen or bathroom, or a beautiful backyard patio can have an impact on how quickly a property sells and for what price. I’ll help you understand all the factors that go into setting the list price, and ensuring it is just right for the marketplace and your goals. Curious as to what your house is likely to sell for in today’s market? Call or email me for your no-obligation Personal Consultation.

Dealing With Offers

  • As your agent I will handle all the details!

  • When selling your house, there are few things more exciting than receiving an offer. That means someone is interested in your property and has prepared a formal offer to buy it. 

  • What is an offer, exactly? 

  • It’s simply a legal document that shows the price the buyer is proposing to pay, which may or may not be the same as your listing price. An offer will include other details, such as the requested closing date, and may also include one or more conditions, such as “conditional on the home inspection.”  Ideally, when you receive an offer, you will want to sell your house to that buyer for the highest price possible. In addition, you’ll want to make sure there are no potential problems that might prevent the deal from closing – such as the buyer being unable to arrange financing. 

  • I realize this may sound complicated. Don’t worry. As your real estate agent, I’ll take care of all the details. 

  • For example, I will: 
  • · Review the offer with you and explain everything clearly.
  •  · Give you my professional assessment as to the quality of the offer. If there are things that concern me, I’ll point them out to you. 
  • · Advise you on whether to accept the offer, reject the offer, or make a counter-offer. 
  • · Prepare a counter-offer, if necessary, that gets you a better deal, without risking the sale slipping through your fingers. 
  • · Skillfully negotiate with the buyer on your behalf, so you sell your house for the highest price possible. 
  • · Prepare all the necessary documents, and work closely with the buyer and his or her agent, to make sure the transaction goes through smoothly. 
  • · Communicate with you throughout the entire process. You’re never in the dark when you work with me. 
  • Selling your house for the best price possible is my expertise, especially in this local market. Want to discuss how much you may be able to get for your house? Call or email me for a no-obligation Personal Consultation.
