I read a great article this morning by Donna Harris, a Realtor with ReMax Austin Skyline, entitled "Real Estate Opinions - Is it the Pricing or the Marketing?". In the article, Donna does an excellent job highlighting two scenarios of properties that have yet to be sold. The first being a situation where there has been a lot of showing activity but no offers. The second being a multiple price reduction scenario that has yielded little or no activity. The question that comes up quite a bit with sellers is which is more important, price or advertising? I say that it is a balance of both for all properties and all market conditions.
The formula that I have found to work best when listing a property is:
Priced Right + Marketing & Advertising To The Widest Possible Buyer Audience + Great Presentation = Showings => Offers => SOLD
Through this type of strategy, you always have a component to revisit that may need to be tweaked or revised to get to the result of SOLD. The most important part of being able to make any decisions in any part of this is to get feedback. Feedback from buyer showings is crucial and the most common. I look for trends such as "Priced a bit too high" which tells us the obvious . . . revisit price. Price is great feedback though because it's the perfect opportunity to ask for an offer which gets the negotiation process in motion. Other feedback may be "Too small" which may be a staging and presentation issue that can be revisited and tweaked to give a more open feel. So forth and so on. No showings is a time to ask for some by partnering with other people in your office or other Realtors in the area and schedule a preview of the property to get feedback.
To give you a real world scenario, a family within my neighborhood had their house for sale on their own for about a year with no reaction. When I first heard the price they were asking, I thought that might be the issue. They asked my opinion. I did an analysis, and found that the price really wasn't "out of line". The house was gorgeous and offered a lot of great features to highlight. So we put things in motion at the same price point. The result, multiple showings in the first week and an offer within 4 days. Sold in less than 30 days at more than they expected to get. Here, advertising and follow-up to showings was the issue.
So let's look at the role each of these play within the selling strategy:
There is obviously a ton which could be written on all of these components. The key to successful selling is having a strategic plan and working the plan. 'The Plan' is the formula I gave above and quickly identifying 'weak areas' and taking the necessary steps to correct them quickly leads to more success in selling your property. Feedback is always welcome.
Thanks and have a great day. And a big thank you to Donna Harris for her article.
