I helped some clients write an offer an a house yesterday that they've fallen in love with. The house has only been on the market about a week, and there will be competition from other offers. This is a strange situation to be in after the draught in buyers that so many of properties have seen over the last 6-9 months. It is a unique house, which is the primary reason it's got so much interest, but it's also VERY well priced.
In any market, buyers', sellers' other in between, a home that is priced 10% below market will ALWAYS attract buyers. As a listing agent, I find that helping sellers to understand that it's rare to be able to ask for both a quick sale AND the last dollar of sale price. The best you can offer is a perfect balance of the two.
In this particular case, the seller wanted a quick sale, and she's going to get it! Do you find that sellers, even those with a true sense of urgency, don't understand this concept?
