- I'M FRUSTRATED. I WAS LISTED WITH ANOTHER AGENT. HOW CAN YOU GET OFFERS WHEN THAT LISTING WASN'T SUCCESSFUL?
Each agent has an
individual market plan, and not all agents are
alike. If you are priced correctly and your house is in prime showing condition,
it's time to re-evaluate how your property is being actively marketed for sale.
Before making your decision on price, please keep in mind the following rule of thumb:
Generally, if a property is listed at
20% above market, it has 0% chance to sell
15% above market, it has 5% chance to sell
10% above market, it has
30% chance to sell
5% above market, it has
50% chance to sell
** at market, it has
95% chance to sell
5% below
market, it has 100% chance to sell!
