DETERMINING THE VALUE OF YOUR HOME
YOUR PROPERTY WILL NEED TO BE UNIQUELY POSITIONED TO CREATE MAXIMUM INTEREST
Although the listing price you place on your property will influence its sale, there are many other factors that come into play. Some of these factors are within your control, others are not.
Factors not within your control:
� Your property’s location
� Recent property market values
� Current economic indicator
Factors within your control:
� Your property’s distinctive and compelling attributes
� The physical condition of your property (home and grounds)
� The closing date you prefer
� The ready access to your property for showing
� The selection of the real estate sales professional you choose to represent you
Factors to consider:
� A house that is priced right from the beginning achieves the highest proceeds.
� Take advantage of the initial excitement your home will draw its first few weeks on the market by realistic pricing. The desired end result is to find a price that will attract a buyer in a reasonable time.
� Based on supply and demand, the market determines the price.
� Market research assists in determining Opinion of Value. Our Comparative Market Analysis considers both recent transfers as well as active listings.
� Ultimately the selling price will be determined by not only comparable properties but by competing buyers. Buyers will establish a “worth” that your property has to them.
� The buying public determines the market value of your home. There is no exact price for real estate. However, pricing does affect salability.

OPINION OF VALUE MARKET PRICE
OUR MUTUAL OBJECTIVE IS TO ACHIEVE THE HIGHEST SELLING PRICE FOR YOUR PROPERTY
Market research assists in determining Opinion of Value. Our Comparative Market Analysis considers both recent transfers as well as active listings.
Ultimately the selling price will be determined not only by comparable properties but by competing buyers as well. Buyers will establish a “worth” that your property has to them.
In the auction world the highest price for a painting will be achieved by all prospects in a position to both afford and appreciate the painting. In auctions, the consignor may set a reserve. If the highest bid is less than the reserve, the painting will go unsold. This is not unlike a real estate property for sale.
In contrast to a painting, however, real estate is location specific. Your property value is closely tied to the history of prices in your same community, region and state.
Purchase of a residential property, at any price, is both an emotional and business decision. The decision to purchase is driven by emotion. The purchase price is tied to both emotion and market data.

THE IMPORTANCE OF INTELLIGENT PRICING
Determining the best asking price for a home can be one of the most challenging aspects of selling a home. It is also one of the most important. If your home is listed at a price that is above market value, you will miss out on prospective buyers who would otherwise be prime candidates to purchase your home. If you list at a price that is below market value, you will ultimately sell for a price that is not the optimum value for your home. As Figure 1 illustrates, more buyers purchase their properties at market value than above market value. The percentage increases as the price falls even further below market value. Therefore, by pricing your property at market value, you expose it to a much greater percentage of prospective buyers. This increases your chances for a sale while ensuring a final sale price that properly reflects the market value of your home.
Another critical factor to keep in mind when pricing your home is timing. A property attracts the most attention, excitement and interest from the real estate community and potential buyers when it is first listed on the market (see Figure 2). Improper pricing at the initial listing misses out on this peak interest period and may result in your property languishing on the market. This may lead to a below market value sale price (see Figure 3), or, even worse, no sale at all. Therefore, your home has the highest chances for a fruitful sale when it is new on the market and the price is reasonably established.
We can give you up-to-date information on what is happening in the marketplace and the price, financing, terms, and condition of competing properties. These are key factors in getting your property sold at the best price, quickly and with minimum hassle.
