You must always be honest with your seller. A few years ago you could over price a home and it would still sell with enough time. When homes where going up 20-30% a year you could over price home $10,000- $20,000 and it would sell within 6 months. In a 6 month time a home would go up $20,000 so you where ok. This is no longer true.
We are back in a normal market, homes are no longer going up 20-30% a year. In todays market if you over price your home you will get sell you neighbors home. Then your home will sit, the longer your home sits the less money you make.
That is why you must always be honest with your your sellers. That is one of reasons we sell so many homes for top dollar in the Vancouver area. If you would like more information feel free to contact us.

Good points and very true for all of us. We have to be honest and commit to that through all our transactions or in the end we'll lose more business than we gain.
Whoever said "honesty is the best policy" knew what they were talking about. Nice post.
I couldn't agree with you more! My time is valuable and I have no time to deal with sellers who don't understand what is going on in the market. Time and energy wise it is best to let go of listings if you cannot be honest up front!
