I went on listing appointments in the last one month and unfortunately did not get them. In hindsight, I am so glad I did not get them. The sellers wanted high prices for their homes which they would not get at all. One of them sold for $20,000 under the list price; the other one still sits on the market( funny thing- they hired the same super hero agent who sold the other home for 20K lower; knew how much he was pending at and yet priced this home at least 40K higher than this one !!!) and the other one is the most expensive one on the market !!
When I give a price range of how much the house will appraise for, I know what I am talking about. I study my buyers appraisals very carefully and know how much the appraisers are adjusting values, for what they give the plus and for what they give the minus in value. In fact my loan officer always tells me- you are ALWAYS right Rama !!!!!And yes- I am right almost 99% of the time.
A house that gets listed has one single purpose for the seller- GET IT SOLD. But then listen to the agent who is giving you the truthful honest answer. I have my own home in Windemere and I know exactly how much it is worth right now- I am not going to thinking that my house is worth $300,000 more than the market value.
Yes the truth hurts but if you want to sell your home fast, then price it right or just do not enter the market and add on to the list of over priced stagnating homes.You can never price your home too low because the market will tell you. Getting emotionally detached is the first step and the second( and most important step) is to believe the person who tells you the truth rather than the agent who lies to you just to make you happy. They will ask you for a price reduction in 3 weeks !
