It is human nature to believe that our own house is the best in every way and worth the most money. However you call a real estate agent for a reason; to get good sound advice on pricing your home and getting it ready for the market. Try not to have sales price expectations for your property until your agent has shown you the facts. The facts are: recent similar sales, active listings that might compete with your home and pending sales. In the present market the recent sales that you and your agent study should be from the last 3-4 months if possible, because the market has been declining. A sale 8 months ago may not sell now for what it did then. So, my best advice is to reassess the asking price, change it if necessary and move forward.
