Overpricing or correct pricing?

By
Real Estate Agent with City Limits Realty 356805

What use to be considered overpricing a home is now the correct price, but in a slowing market.  Can the real estate agent determine the approximate selling price in a downturn?  It is definitely more difficult even with all the data that is accessible.  There is decreased demand even with correct pricing or "priced below market" pricing.  After all this is a business transaction.

Marketing has taken on a whole different meaning. Years of real estate experience will be put to good use in the coming months as I go back to the basics on setting the listing price on the homes I market or come up with new ways to set the listing price.  Does the old way work?  Not without a lot of thought and scrutiny...

Carol, in my opinion the only "Correct" price is what the home sells for. You can market it at a comparative price or a little over or a little under. But bottom line it comes down to what the seller can actually close at the table for.
