I have a listing that hit the market May 1st. Not a short sale. Not a bank owned home. It is an actual seller with equity in the house.

The neighborhood comps are not what they were last year, and definitely not what they were two years ago. But after going over the numbers with my client, he chose to list AT the current market value.

Market value, as he learned, is NOT what others in the neighborhood are ASKING for their homes. It is what a buyer is willing to PAY for a similiar home. Therefore, we looked only to the sold listings and ignored the actives. And we only looked at solds thirty days back.

My client had been warned that average number of days it takes to sell is 120, so he was ready for a 3-4 month stint at the worst case. There was showing activiity the very first day. More the next. A little after a week on the market he received one offer. Then a few days later, another. His gut reaction was to think he was underpricing the house. He thought this because he got such a flurry of activity right out of the gate,

I explained to him, that despite what it may feel like, he was doing the right thing. The market had been steadily declining for months. Pricing correctly your very first day on the market meant he wasn't going to get into the cycle of dropping a much higher list price, and somehow, still be way above market value. We also knew that a neighborhood short sale had two offers below his own list price and would probably settle in about thirty to sixty days, bringing neighborhood market value further down.

"While it may not seem like it, you are actually ending up in much better shape than your neigbhors that are listed for twenty-five and fifty thousand dollars more. They've been on the market for months without any contracts. And to sell, they are most likely, going to have to come BELOW where you are priced now."

So pricing correctly from the very start got this seller a very reasonable contract in fourteen days. He will not have to keep his house "show ready" for four months, and be disappointed week after week, month after month as market value declines, and there is no offer. He made the right choice and got a great result. His expectations were met and in short order.

It pays to listen to listen to your Realtor!

Despite what the media says, it's a great time to buy a home. There are FHA programs out there that will give you down payment assistance! Yep, that's right....assistance that you don't have to pay back. Also, congress passed legislation that will give you $7,000.00 in tax credits for buying a foreclosure home! So, what are you waiting for??
