Advice For Sellers - The Way It Should Be

Well said. Yes, that's the way it should be. Choosing an agent based on price is a poor choice and one you will soon regret!

I see it all the time where sellers eventually get to a LOWER price because their home has lingered on the market when they don't understand that pricing right from the start is the best way to sell their home for the most money.

I am impressed that sellers chose without discussing price at all.  Most sellers I have ran across are so focused on price they ignore the real stuff that counts.... like marketing!

Indeed that is the way it should be... then again, we know there will always be those sellers who will be seduced by the highest quoted home price and those agents who will "buy" the business that way.

Just had this very discussion yesterday.  The market including the EXACT 2 sales in their very neighborhood just sold for $239,000 and they want no less than $260,000 because someone told them there have been plenty of homes just like theres sell for much higher "near by".  These are gated communities and all built by different builders.  Appraisers are going outside the "hood" if they can get the comps they need to appraise.  

But some realtor already got in their head and BOUGHT THE LISTING.  Now I have to talk them off the ledge.  Stay tuned.
