Where Should Your Home be Priced?
There are three main pricing strategies - pricing your home: above, at, or below its market value.

Priced above market value Sellers like to price their home high, thinking that someone just might pay it. That's unlikely - buyers shopping for a home know exactly what the market is like, and won't be fooled into paying more than it's worth.

Priced at market value Always a good strategy - that's what your home is worth!

Worried about setting the wrong price? Hire a professional, and experienced agent! Why?  Because if your home isn't within 5% of the average value, it's overpriced, and the list price should be dropped. Don't let your home become an old, tired listing. It will eventually sell for less than you would have received if you'd priced it properly!

Ellen doesn't play pricing games when listing a home. She list our homes at the right price. Everyone benefits! This ensures that our listings sell in the shortest time for the highest price! We feel this is the best approach! Unlike other agents that will "BUY YOUR LISTING!" (Listing your home at a higher price even if it unrealistic, because the agent knows that you need to sell.) They know that your personal needs will dictate the necessity to reduce later. Within a few weeks of listing your home at the higher price, the agent will start approaching you to reduce the price. How mean! We feel that this is emotional blackmail.
