When thinking about selling your Oahu home, I know the most important thing to you as a Seller is the amount of money you net and the timeframe it takes to sell. Contact me today to discuss the options for selling your Oahu home.
Setting the Right Selling Price Affects Your Bottom Line – If you are considering selling your Oahu home, the price you set is a critical factor in the return you will receive. In real estate terms, market value is the price in which a particular house, in its current condition, will sell within 30 to 90 days.
If the price of your Oahu home is set too high, several things could happen:
- Limited buyers: Potential buyers may not view your home or even be aware that it is for sale and matches their needs, because it would be out of their buying price range. Price it right, and attract more buyers.
- Limited showings: Other real estate agents, as well as buyers, may be reluctant to view your home i it overpriced. Price it right and they will come!
- Used as leverage: Other real estate agents may use an overpriced home to sell others that are better priced. You want to sell your home, not be compared to.
- Extended stay on the market: When a home is on the market too long, it may be perceived as defective. Buyers may wonder “what’s wrong,” or “why hasn’t it sold?” Again, price your home right, and it will attract more buyers quicker and sell!
- May not appraise: A bank appraisal is most often required to finance a home and an overpriced home will not appraise.
- Lower price: An overpriced home, still on the market beyond the average selling time, could ultimately lead to a lower selling price. To sell it, you will have to reduce the price, sometimes several times. In the end, you will probably get less than if it had been properly priced from the very beginning.
Well-kept homes, properly priced in the beginning ALWAYS get you the fast sale for the best price!
