When you’re selling your home in Metro Denver or any of the surrounding communities, it’s incredibly important that you price it correctly right from the start.
I will be there to guide you during the entire process, and be able to tell you just what your home is worth on today’s market – but it’s up to you to listen to my pricing recommendation and decide to follow it.
Why Take My Pricing Advice?
As your agent I will tell you just how much your home is worth on the current market, but it’s not a guess. It’s not even an educated guess… it’s a science, and not to sound aragant, I have this process down pat.
I will compare your home to other, similar homes in the area. I will look at every detail, from the square footage and the size of the yard to the upgrades you’ve put in, as well as all the little details that make your home special.
I will then only use very similar homes to make the comparison, because that’s the only way to reach an accurate price.
What Goes Into Determining Price?
Pricing your home correctly depends on many factors, including:
· Size
· Lot size
· Upgrades
· Amenities
· Proximity to local amenities, schools and more
· Age
· Maintenance
If you’ve put major improvements into your home, let me know so I can account for it when figuring out how much your home is worth. Remember, though, that not all upgrades and improvements will raise your home’s resale value – and some things, such as a new roof or new HVAC system, simply count as maintenance that’s expected as part of home ownership.
What if You Get the Pricing Wrong?
Many sellers mistakenly believe that they can price a home high at first, and if they don’t get any offers, they’ll simply lower the price later.
That’s a huge mistake!
The first 30 days your home is on the market are the hottest. That’s when it gets the most attention. However, if it’s priced too high, you’re locking out a huge segment of potential buyers – they won’t even come to see your home because it’s out of their price range. Another thing: When it’s priced too high and buyers can get more house elsewhere for the same amount of money, they’re not going to want yours.
If you price it too low, you may sell it quickly… but you’re leaving money on the table (and who wants to do that?!).
The bottom line is that I know the market and I know how much your home is worth. That’s why you hired me to list your house in the first place! Know that I want to sell your home as quickly as I can, and for the best possible price.
