Setting the Listing Price
Before we set the listing price of your house, as your Realtor and a former appraiser, I'll do a 'mini unofficial appraisal' of your home that will show the listing price of similar houses in the area (the competition) as well as the prices at which the houses actually sold. I'll also look at current market conditions, as well as consider what direction the market is going. It's a particularly dynamic and challenging market out there right now so picking the correct listing price is absolutely crucial.
Next, I'll ask you about your goals in selling the house. BEveryone who sells a house has different goals that need to be factored in when calculating the listing price.
- Is your goal to get the maximum sales price for your house?
- If so, are you willing to have your house on the market for many months?
- Is your goal to sell your house quickly?
- If so, are you willing to sacrifice some of your potential profits to sell more quickly?
- Would you like to establish a balance between selling your house quickly and selling at the top end of market value?

I'll then recommend a price at which to list your house to meet your goals in the Savannah market. This is not an exact science, but with my appraisal experience we should be very close to the mark. After a few weeks on the market, if we aren't satisfied with the results and the activity level, we'll reevaluate the market and see what..if anything, needs to be done to jump-start the listing campaign. When I list a home, it begins not only a client-Realtor partnership..but a true business partnership where we work together...towards the same goal, and collectively do our respective best to achieve that goal.
