How Do You Know if Your House is Priced Right?

November 7, 2015 Posted by Matt

How do you know if your house is priced right?  The residential housing market has been hot. Home sales have bounced back solidly and are now at their second highest pace since February 2007. Demand remains strong going into the winter. Many real estate professionals are reporting that multiple offers are occurring regularly and listings are actually selling above listing price. What about your house?

If your house hasn’t sold, it is probably the price.

If your home is on the market and you are not receiving any offers, look at your price. If you haven’t had any showings it is another  indication the price might be too high.  Pricing your home just 10% above market value dramatically cuts the number of prospective buyers that will even see your house.
