2. Choose a pricing strategy to sell

Your next objective is to consult with Jack Allen and Randy VerPloeg to determine the best possible selling price of your home. You will need to take into account the state of the local market, the condition of your home, and sales of comparable homes in your neighborhood. Jack and Randy will create a comparative market analysis by taking into consideration the type of market you are in and recent sales of comparable properties. Jack and Randy will then guide you to the best fair market price that will help sell your home within your desired time frame. Usually, Jack and Randy have a clearer and more objective sense of market value than anyone else - including appraisers!

Often, it can be hard for you, as a seller, to also maintain objectivity, so remember to be reasonable about the price you set. You will always be better off setting a fair market value price than setting your price high expecting that someone will come along and be willing to pay it. If your home stays on the market too long because it is overpriced, potential buyers may think that something is wrong with it and you may end up selling it for less than what you could have gotten if you had started out with a realistic asking price.
