Ah what a difference it makes when you decide to present your home as fabulous, not as is!
It may not be the easy route to take, but when you do take the trouble to update your home as needed (master baths and kitchens should be on the top of your list), and make sure it's clean and organized (no giant waterfalls of clutter to greet buyers when they open your closet doors), you will reap the benefits.
Your home will sell in less time and for more money because that's what it takes these days to get a home sold. Buyers are asking for move in ready and they will pass on your home if it's not in great condition.
Don't make the mistake of thinking potential buyers will want to change carpet, paint or make needed repairs. They will just as likely move on to the next home that is updated and ready to move into.
You've worked hard for your home. Don't throw away your investment in time and money. Make sure you don't leave any money or equity on the table.

Tessa--I like your graphic. Basically, if you have priced your property well and done all the work you should get at or near asking price. It is what we tell clients all the time, I just like the way you've shown it here.
