The Right Selling Price Affects Your Bottom Line

When you're selling your home in the greater Lansing, Michigan real estate market, the price you set is a critical factor in the return you'll receive. That's why you need a professional evaluation from an experienced Realtor. This person can provide you with an honest assessment of your home, based on several factors including:

Market conditions
Condition of your home
Repairs or improvements
Time frame
In real estate terms, market value is the price at which a particular house, in its current condition, will sell within 30 to 90 days.

If the price of your home is too high, several things could happen:

Limits buyers: Potential buyers may not view your home, because it would be out of their buying range.
Limits showings: Other salespeople may be less reluctant to view your home.
Used as leverage:Other Realtors may use this home to sell against homes that are better priced.
Extended stay on the market: When a home is on the market too long, it may be perceived as defective. Buyers may wonder, "what's wrong," or "why hasn't this sold?"
Lower price: An overpriced home, still on the market beyond the average selling time, could lead a lower selling price: To sell it, you will have to reduce the price, sometimes, several times. In the end, you'll probably get less than if it had been properly priced at the start.
Wasted time and energy: A bank appraisal is most often required to finance a home.

Realtors have known it for years - Well-kept homes, properly priced in the beginning always get you the fast sale for the best price! And that's why you need a professional to assist you in the selling of your home.

Realtors provide sellers invaluable services, and there are many reasons to work with one. A Realtor:

Can give you up-to-date information about the market, prices, financing, terms, and conditions of competing properties
Will market your property to other real estate agents and to the public
Will know when, where, and how to best market your property
Can help you objectively evaluate every buyer's proposal without compromising your market position
Can help close the sale of your home
