As a seller you have no control over the market. Period.
But as a seller you do have control over pricing, the condition of your property, and how easy it is for prospective buyers to tour your home. Incorrectly pricing your San Francisco home when initially putting it on the market can mean your property will take much longer to sell and can ultimately mean getting less at the closing table than you could if priced correctly for the current market.

Your San Francisco real estate agent will provide you with recent comparable sales that will help you understand how many buyers are in your price point and making offers in your neighborhood. In San Francisco it is common to set a competitive price since few buyers will make offers substantially under an asking price, and it encourages more buyers to make serious offers when there is little inventory for your type of home.
Your agent will also go through your home and make suggestions regarding small repairs and updates that will help you get top dollar.
