Tips On How To Price Your Home
1. Consider Comparables:
What have other homes in your neighborhood sold for recently? How do they compare to yours in terms of size, upkeep, and amenities?
2. Consider Competition:
How many other houses are for sale in your area? Are you competing against new homes, short sales, and bank owned?
3. Consider Your Contingencies:
Do you have special concerns that would affect the price you'll receive? For example, do you want to be able to move in four months?
4. Get an appraisal:
For a few hundred dollars, a qualified appraiser can give you an estimate of your home's value. Be sure to ask for a market-value appraisal. To locate appraisers in your area, contact The Appraisal Institute(www.AppraisalInstitute.org) or ask a REALTOR for some recommendations.
5. Ask A Lender:
Since most buyers will need a moprtgage, it's important that a home's sale price be in line with a lender's estimate of value.
6. Be Accurate:
Studies show that homes priced higher that 3 percent over the correct price take longer to sell.
7. Know What You Will Accept:
It's critical to know what price you will accept before beginning a negotiation with a buyer.
