Selling your property

Your home can be in immaculate condition, it can be professionally staged, landscaped, marketed aggressively locally and online, and with virtual tours to beat any you’ve seen. But if it is priced too high no one will look at it. When people shop for a home they look within a specific price range and if you have your home priced too high you could lose that buyer.

Get a REALTOR® that knows the market, in today’s market you really need an expert with marketing skills, and knowledge of pricing a home. It takes much more than putting a sign in the yard to get a house sold today, and a realtor should have the expertise to assist you with pricing your home. Ask your REALTOR® to provide you with a CMA, and a BPO:

Comparative Market Analysis (CMA)

Most local MLS databases make it relatively easy for a REALTOR ® to create a CMA. Agents need to enter in the specifications of your home, number of bedrooms, baths, square feet, year built and so on and then find those that are active, sold (within the last 90 days) and they will come up with an average price/square foot. The sold is where you want to price your house, as that is the price the market is stating that comparable homes are being sold at. The downfall of a CMA is in the data. The CMA does not take into account the neighborhood, the condition of the property or the sales history of the area. It is important to remember that a CMA is only an estimate of what the home could get on the open market under normal circumstances. It in no way a sets value for your particular property, It’s just an estimate.

Brokers Pricing Opinion (BPO)

A BPO is a tool used by lenders, mortgage companies, and relocation companies to obtain an estimated value of a property to determine viability or strength of a sale. They usually contact a REALTOR® and pay the REALTOR® a set fee for researching comparable properties to determine value. A BPO will have information regarding comparable Active Listings, Under Contract Listings, and recent Sold Listings. They will also contain information on sales trends in the area, employment opportunities, and an estimated cost of repairs for the property. BPOs are a little more detailed than a CMA, but they do not determine true market value for your property either. BPOs are an estimate of value and again just an estimate.

Absorption Rate

The easiest way to understand current and future market condition is to monitor the real estate absorption rate. The real estate absorption rate is the rate at which the inventory of homes for sale is being sold. You will see on many REALTOR® CMAs the heading Days on Market, but that figure can easily be manipulated by removing and then relisting a property to “reset” the numbers. The real estate absorption rate is a better gauge of how long it will take to sell your home, and how aggressive you will need to reach your timing goal to sell. Mathematically, absorption rate is the measurement of current housing supply divided by the current rate of sales, expressed in months or weeks of supply. A simpler way to express the definition of the real estate absorption rate is to say it is the number of months that the market will need for the foreseeable future. Thus, an absorption rate of 11 would mean that at our current rate of sales, we have all the homes for sale in the Gulf Coast area that the market needs for the next 11 months. It is all about supply and demand. Supply and demand is an economic model of price determination in a market. It concludes that in a competitive market, the unit price for a particular good will vary until it settles at a point where the quantity demanded by consumers (at current price) will equal the quantity supplied by producers (at current price), resulting in an economic equilibrium of price and quantity. That equilibrium of price and quantity in the housing market is determined by the absorption rate.

Helping a friend or a relative who is a REALTOR® may not be the best course of action in today’s marketplace. Your REALTOR® needs to know the market, and help you to compete in the market in a way that best benefits you.
