price a home to sell: Video Shows Why Home Sellers Must Eliminate Their Margin For Negotiation - 02/01/11 08:18 AM
An interesting trend appears to be occurring in the reader questions that I receive at the Tallahassee Real Estate Blog. In the past, most questions were submitted by homebuyers, and the questions were usually relating to the purchase of a home. But now, home sellers are starting to spring up with questions of their own. They want to understand the different aspects of selling a home, and determining the asking price is near the top of the list.
Recently, home seller “Shawn” dropped me a note asking:
Joe, how much margin for negotiation should I include in my asking price?

price a home to sell: Price Your Home To Sell - 11/23/10 08:28 AM
Pricing a home to sell has always required a balance between science (looking at comparable sales and current competition) and art (determining the initial market positioning and key marketing features), but today it is more important than ever. With roughly 60% of all MLS-listed homes failing to sell over the past 365 days, we know how important every part of our progressive marketing program is going to be for the home seller.
Yesterday’s blog post about defining “Shadow Inventory” in real estate generated quite a few emails and questions, but it also prompted a response from our recently retired Tallahassee real … (4 comments)

price a home to sell: Cynical Home Seller Wants To Know Best Asking Price - 07/20/10 09:04 AM
Recently, we received a reader question regarding how to set the asking price for a home. The question stemmed from the blog titled Why Real Estate Is Always A Sellers Market, where “Robert S.” asked:
Not to be overly cynical, but wouldn’t a realtor in a slow market be anxious to convince sellers to list houses for less than they are worth, since some commission is better than no commission?
First of all, I do not believe this is a cynical shot at what I wrote, rather it is a perfectly reasonable and fair question to ask. After all, … (4 comments)

price a home to sell: Home Pricing Strategy Has Changed - 03/12/10 06:33 AM
If you have to sell a home, I have an important tip that is crucial for you to understand. The internet has created many changes and opportunities in the real estate market, and home sellers who do not understand the evolution in pricing strategy will find that they are chasing away homebuyers.
One big questions that home sellers always want to ask is how much “negotiating room” should they include in their asking price for a home. I’m sure Google has seen the following more than once!

price a home to sell: How To Price A Home To Sell - 02/10/10 07:37 AM
Winter will be departing soon and the seasonal changes that are approaching always stimulate the Tallahassee housing market. If you need to sell your home, you have a great chance now, so don’t blow it!
For you to realize success in selling a home, you have to be knowledgeable on how to determine the home value range. This is so critical that I suspect that is the top reason that most people fail to sell a home in Tallahassee (and most other markets as well). So how hard is it to sell a home right now?

price a home to sell: New Pricing Practices Get Homes Sold - 12/08/09 07:25 AM
Frustrated homeowners are accumulating, and traditional real estate pricing practices are not making them any happier. It is time to recognize that there is a new way to determine the best asking price for getting a home sold in today’s difficult real estate market.
What we have been doing is not working. The real estate graph to the right shows that if we compare the number of homes that have sold, with the number of homes that were put up for sale over the past year, 81% failed! Would you hire a REALTOR® if you knew they were sporting an … (6 comments)
