Why isn't my home selling?

Good question -- and one that you hear often in today's Atlanta real estate market.why isn't my home selling

The answer is that your home is probably overpriced.

If you REALLY want to sell your home in the shortest amount of time for the HIGHEST PRICE - no matter what the market conditions -- there is ONE thing that you absolutely have to do:

PRICE IT CORRECTLY.

That may mean pricing it 1% to 4% below market value in order to stay ahead of the declining home values, but the upside is that it will SELL QUICKLY and may even generate multiple offers.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

According to ChartMaster Services LLC, more than 80% of all Metro Atlanta listings failed (i.e. didn't sell during the 3 to 6 month listing period). That number is outrageous!

If the Atlanta home sellers priced their home correctly -- the first time -- and selected a motivated, knowledgeable real estate professional, there is a very, very good change that their home would have a SOLD sign in the front yard.

I know this may seem a little harsh, but honestly, the number of failed listings over the last six months is staggering! If you are thinking of selling your Atlanta or Decatur home, I would highly recommend that you research local real estate agents on the internet, select three agents that you like and invite them to your home for a listing presentation and a comparative market analysis of your home. Hopefully, the agents suggested list pricing will be similar to one another and you can then select the agent who is most familiar with your neighborhood, has a great marketing plan and is MOTIVATED to quickly sell your home.

If you have any questions about the home selling process in Atlanta or Decatur, please call me anytime at (404) 432.1844.

All the best,

Metro Atlanta Market Update - What price ranges are selling?

Atlanta Home Search - ATL Home Finder

It looks like the first time home buyers are OFFICIALLY coming out of the woodwork! To follow is a snapshot of all the homes that sold in the last six months by price range.

Atlanta Market Reports and Home Sales

Based on the chart above, more than 75% of all the Metro Atlanta home sales in the last six months were under $300,000.

We don't have an idea (yet!) as to how many of the 75% were first time home buyers, but if you are considering selling your home and it is under the $300,000 price point, your pool of potential buyers is going to be much larger than those sellers with a $800k + home... and you'll have a better change of selling your Atlanta home.
