Most home sellers would like to get the best possible price out of a sale, but if the price is put too high then it can cause reduction in the offers that come for the home. Even if you are willing to take less, prospective buyers may not even come to the bargaining table which can make the process of selling the home difficult.
The reason why property pricing needs to be done accurately can be understood from this example. A seller decides to price a property a bit higher than the market price, in the hope that he can get a profit, even if he is ready to accept a lower price. The marketing of the property starts and the property is listed with all the other properties around the same marketed price. Now, when a buyer decides to buy a home that is worth that market price, he pulls out a list of all properties being sold within that range. On comparing the amenities available in each of the homes, it will be seen that the home does not offer all the benefits, as compared to other homes of that amount. Thus, the buyer may ignore the home and look for something with better facilities in the same range.
Similarly, when a buyer is looking for a home within a particular range, he will look at properties up to a few thousand dollars more than his set price. Even with the added amount, the cost may not be equal to the price you have quoted. This can prevent your home from appearing in searches of various prospective customers. With this overlooking of your home, it could get quite difficult to make a proper sale.
As a result of this oversight, your home may appear to be stuck in the market for a long period of time. With a growing list of houses available for sale, property listings do tend to get stale in a very short time period. It is seen that a listing generates the maximum interest within the first 2 or 3 weeks, since it was placed. When homes appear to be in the market for a longer period of time than usual, then the buyers can get quite hesitant when it comes to buying it, just like a store where new release of a product leads to the maximum interest, which begins to die down as time passes. This can even cause you to sell your house at a much lesser price than you earlier intended to.
To get the right price for your property, a fair amount of research is required to give you an idea. To ensure you get an amount closer to your asked price, you must show your home to the maximum number of buyers and get a larger amount of offers. This will help you to get enough profit from the sale. The best way to get a decent amount of profit is by placing your asking price within 5% of the market value. This will ensure that you have ample inquiries regarding your offer and will allow you a chance of getting a good deal to rise significantly.
