The role of your SunRise REALTOR in Pricing your home. There is no “exact price” for real estate
We don’t tell you what we think your home is “worth”
THE MARKET DETERMINES VALUE-together we determine price
We will show you a range of prices being paid for homes in your area that are comparable to your home. You determine the price based on the factors you control:
1. Market Time
2. Condition of the Property
3. The comparables The Real Value of Your home is Based on Facts A good REALTOR will show you the facts regarding the price your home will sell for. The most revealing fact is the price buyers have been willing to pay for homes similar to yours. These are called comparable sales and are available to every REALTOR in our area. We will research
Homes closed in the last 90 days—2 years in the surrounding area
Homes pending, but have not closed yet to give us a good idea of immediate value
Homes on the market to determine the degree of competitiveness Once we have collected all necessary data, we compare each of the homes to your home’s features. Comparisons done in such detail will produce an accurate price range to list your home competitively in the market. The basis for your selling price is its market value, commonly defined as the amount a willing buyer will pay, and an amount acceptable to the seller. The best indicators of market price are the comps that your Zuidema Team representative researched for you. Don’t select your agent based on the price they say your home will sell for. Remember, the agent you choose isn’t buying your home; your agent is responsible for selling your home. The agent who is willing to list your house at the highest price is least likely to get your home sold for top dollar. An agent who knowingly takes an overpriced listing usually plans to start “working on you” immediately to get a series of deep price cuts. The problem, besides your frustration and feelings of betrayal, is that all other agents quickly decide your home is “overpriced” and won’t continue to show it to other clients. The result is you home takes longer to sell, your offers come in considerably lower and you get less money. The secret to getting the most money and the quickest sale with the fewest problems is to price your home properly. The facts are available and they are clear and convincing. The best way to select a REALTOR is to find the person with the best strategy for marketing your home. More Information |
