Sandy - Before the recession is ended, we will have lost about 50% of our home builders. And while many sellers haven't yet seen the reality of this market, they will when they can't sell.
John: How can we get the sellers to understand that their house will NOT sell if it is overpriced. What usually happens is that it expires, you lose the listing, then the seller lowers the price with the new agent and the house sells.
Sandy: An over priced listing is no good for any one. It is a wrong turn in the road from the beginning.
David: What was it we were told in one of our classes: No amount of advertising dollars will sell an overpriced listing.
Sandy...
As soon as I hear the words "I really don't need to sell" I think to myself: "Then you won't!" You can't chase the market, it is indeed a recipe for disaster.
Richard: It's good to hear that you agree with me. Chasing the market is the worst thing a seller can do.
Time will fix it. I think we are a year or to ahead of your cycle, It's not a fast thing...sellers will get it, (eventually) meanwhile stick with the very motivated.
