Such edgy way to do business, in my opinion, is not only dangerous but is creating lots of unwelcomed side-effects. Let’s deal with these two points, one at a time:

• Dangerous: when we play games with the market, the market can play games with us. Real estate is not an exact science. If you deliberately underprice a property, there is no certainty that the gimmick will work every time. When it does not, the seller (and the perspiring agent) may be faced with a nasty dilemma or how to respond to clean offers just matching the asking price. At the high-end, you never can count on a host of qualified buyers fighting over a property. Often, there is only one candidate writing a bid, and he sure does not want to pay a dime more than he has to.

Also, after months of madness in the marketplace, mostly due in many areas to a record low inventory, many are the buyers who are emotionally exhausted.

They keep on writing offers and get rejected time after time, losing to the one buyer who cannot live without that particular home, at any price. The excitement of trying to buy can quickly become the discouragement of over-negotiating and coming up empty. Most buyers are no longer willing to play games. Sellers beware.

d, I have a hard time understanding how deceptive marketing formula. I mean, if you a “sellers’ market” and you list it at $1.8M, it ouse will likely sell around the same $2.2 or

• Unwelcomed side-effects: Not all sellers, on the advice of their agents, underprice their home… to get more. The great majority of the sellers list their homes at market, if not a bit over. Makes sense. The problem is that, even though they are told by their agents that the listing price is indeed on the high side, lots of sellers, intoxicated by ads suggesting that some brokers routinely sell homes 5/10/15/20/25% over asking, fully expect that they too will get a heck of a lot more than the advertised price. It’s contagious.

One humble and practical piece of advice to Realtors out-there: when you think of a price (“rational” or not) for a listing, be sure to have a good/clear talk with the seller, to explain what your strategy is and what he can reasonably expect in the way of offers. Not a bad idea to repeat the explanation again & again. Nothing is more deceiving than a false expectation. It’s a relationship killer. You want a win-win, not a lose-lose. The time to prepare the minds and set up the stage for what’s coming is before you jot down the price on the listing contract. Good luck!
