Setting the Sales Price
 
 
Before setting the sales price of your house, call upon the help of a Realtor® who will run a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) that shows the listing price of similar houses in the area as well as the prices at which the houses actually sold. Additionally, the analysis will give you information about houses currently on the market and about houses that were on the market but never sold.
 

Next, think about your goals in selling the house. Everyone who sells a house has different goals that need to be factored in when calculating the selling price.

 

  • Is your goal to get the maximum sales price for your house?
    • If so, are you willing to have your house on the market for many months?

 

  • Is your goal to sell your house quickly?
    • If so, are you willing to sacrifice some of your potential profits to sell more quickly?

 

  • Would you like to establish a balance between selling your house quickly and selling at the top end of market value?

 

Real Estate Market Conditions will play a role in setting the sales price of our house. Your Realtor® will factor in how quickly houses are selling in your area, interest rates, the strength of the school system, and finally whether it is a buyer's or seller's market.

 

At this point, your Realtor® should recommend a price at which to list your house to meet your goals.
