4 Strategies for the Perfect Listing Price
Are you looking to sell your home for the perfect price but don’t know where to start? Luckily, The Janice Burtis Team is here to provide insight on determining the best listing price for your Grand Junction home. From data-driven strategies to local insights, see our tips for the best ways to discover your home’s value.
1. Finding the Right Comparables
When it comes to crafting a CMA (Comparable Market Analysis) report, The Janice Burtis Team gathers data on recent home sales in your neighborhood to determine an accurate price point for your home. Recent listings are the key, because they demonstrate the current environment for buyers and can help predict the future of your home sale journey.
2. Be Realistic About Your Home’s Condition
Buyers in this market are clever and often seek homes that are well-maintained and move-in ready. Recognizing your home's condition is crucial when setting a price. We encourage you to be realistic and objective during the listing process. While you might have sentimental value for your kitchen’s rustic counters or beach-themed bathroom, it's important to present your home as a clean slate that will resonates with potential buyers.
3. Aim Low; Bid High
Setting the right asking price is a pivotal step in attracting potential buyers. Our first tip? Price your home at market value—if not slightly lower—to encourage multiple offers on your home. If enough buyers are interested in your listing, they could start a bidding war that drives the price beyond your asking amount. This is a good strategy in a low-inventory market, similar to the one we’re currently in.
