The most important part of marketing your
home is determining a realistic asking price.
Put yourself in the buyers shoes when setting your price. When you are
house hunting, you will look at everything on the market and try to find
the best value for your money. So when you are ready to sell your home,
step back and look at your home objectively and price it competitively.
If the listing price is too high you'll miss
out on a percentage of buyers looking in the price range where your home
should be. Buyers who would be interested in your home will be scared off
by the price and won't even look. By the time you lower your price, its
often to late because of buyers will wonder why the house has not sold.
Don't rely on hearsay or rumor about recent
sales. Get the facts by asking Marj for a free

in setting the asking price. Questions like:
- How quickly does the house need to sell?
- Is a sale needed to finance the purchase
another home?
- Can the seller afford to hold out for an
above average house?
If your home is priced right your home will
sell faster and will never lose it marketability. Realtors will focus
their energies on your property because it more marketable. A well price
home will attract more potential buyers and usually higher offers.
