Selling A Toronto House or Condo | Setting the Price | Getting Offers
The single most important decision you will make with me is determining the right asking price for your property before listing it for sale
|

The Benefits Of Setting The Right Selling Price
- Your property sells faster, because it is exposed to more qualified buyers.
- Your home doesn't lose its "marketability."
- The closer to market value, the higher the offers.
- A well-priced property can generate competing offers (i.e. multiple offers).
- Real Estate Professionals will be enthusiastic about presenting your property to buyers.
My advice to clients is not to forget this simple truth:
- Available comparable homes in your area give some indication of what home buyers might be willing to pay for your home.
- Expired listings (i.e. homes that were not able to be sold at their asking price) in your area give some indication of what home buyers are not willing to pay for your home.
- Recently sold prices of comparable homes in your area give an indication of what home buyers are willing to pay for your home.
- The longer a home remains on the market without being sold, home buyers start to question what is wrong with the home, further reducing interest.
Put simply, an overpriced home just sells other listings by making them more attractive. The above points illustrate another important truth about selling real estate or any item for that matter. A vendor should not get emotional about the sale. All that matters are the facts. Leave the emotion to the buyer.
I will work with you as your Realtor to take emotion out of the equation, and, based on experience and detailed analysis, consult closely with you to determine a price that will generate maximum interest in your home.
Please note that the pricing strategy is quite dependent on the market conditions for your particular type of home in your particular area. The approach for selling a 5 Bedroom detached home in Markham is quite different from selling a similar home at Avenue and Lawrence. Only a qualified and experienced realtor can provide you with the guidance and information required to set an accurate listing price, which in turn will help you achieve a quicker sale closer to market value.
