Huntsville Home Sales Tips: Pricing Your Home to Attract Buyers
Submitted by: Kimberly Grant, Huntsville Real Estate Agent
Huntsville / Madison Alabama Real Estate Blog
According to a recent research report, approximately 75% of home buyers surf the Web to begin their home search. That means that more buyers are knowledgeable about available properties on the market and the prices they are selling for. For this reason, now more than ever, pricing is key to selling your home.
Sellers often think that a higher price will give them negotiating room. But in fact many buyers don't even look at a property that is overpriced, and consequently, they don't make an offer on it. Few or no views and offers means that the home will just sit on the market.
This can lead to a difficult situation for the property. Buyers often inquire about the length of time a property has been on the market. If it has been on the market a long time, they begin to wonder if there is something wrong. The sellers then have to drop the price, taking less than they might have if they priced it correctly to begin with.
Well-priced homes attract buyers in their price range. If the buyer perceives that a home is a good buy, the seller is positioned to receive the listing price or close to it. This is a much better plan than the "start out over-priced" strategy.
