03 LIST & SHOW I will place your home on the open market, schedule open houses, private showings and more.

PRICING YOUR HOME While you and I will set your home's asking price, the buyer will set the sales price.

If we price your home too high, you'll miss out on potential buyers. Pricing your property at fair market value from the start, will generate the most activity from real estate agents and home buyers. The price must attract enough attention to result in showings and offers.

Pricing factors that influence market value: Level of inventory Buyer demand for your type of home Condition of your home compared to others on the market School District Ratings Location & Neighborhood Functionality including number of bedrooms, bathrooms and flow of home In order to find the right fair market price, we'll combine location and national market knowledge, research and study of similar homes for sale, analysis of past sales to get the price that fits your home! The goal is finding the optimal price - one that will maximize your sale price, but won't keep your house on the market too long.

Misconceptions in pricing your home: Original Purchase Price Property Tax Assessment Zillow or Redfin Estimates Desired Proceeds
