When it comes to selling a home, listing it at the right price is of the utmost importance. However, knowing how high or low to price your home can be extremely difficult, especially when you aren’t familiar with the local real estate market. If you aren’t sure what to do, here are a few tips that can help you get started.
Identify Comparable Properties
As you try selling a home, the best way to acquire accurate pricing information is to look at other properties that have similar features to yours and are located within your local area.
Look at Listings and Selling Prices
After you’ve found comparable properties in your area, look at how much they’re being listed for. This should give you a good starting point for how much you should list your home for.
However, you shouldn’t only look at listing prices. In addition, while selling a home, it’s a good idea to look at selling prices, as well. This information can help you determine if the list prices of comparable properties in your area are realistic.
Work with a Realtor
Although it’s a good idea to do some research on your own to figure out where to price your home, the best way to ensure your home is priced effectively is to work with a real estate agent.
