Pricing Your Home Right

When it comes to selling your home it’s critical that you price it correctly. As much as you'd like to set the price of your home as high as possible, in the end you will actually make more money by pricing it at market. Home buyers today are well educated and over-priced listings often fail to sell. Frequently, when a home owner starts out at a high list price, continuous price drops are necessary to get the home in line with the market to get it sold. This often results in a lower sales price than if the property had been listed properly from the start.


Hiring a strong listing agent will help you best determine your home's worth and keep you comfortable with a reasonable price range.  If you’re getting ready to sell your home on 30A, here are a few things to keep in mind:
  • Don't just rely on the property tax assessment. Many property tax assessments are out of date, and they don't necessarily reflect the current real estate market.
  • Don’t believe everything Zillow tells you. 
  • Hire a strong listing agent, like myself. A good realtor can do the leg work for you. They will know the area, can look up comparable sales and give you a good idea of what you can realistically sell your home for.
  • You can also get your home appraised by a professional appraiser who knows the 30A area.
  • Here at the beach, most listings sell for 95%-98% of list price, so pricing it right is extremely important here on 30A.
