Pricing to Sell Your Home in Arlington Virginia! Selling a home or real estate in Arlington Virginia? Don't know how to set the price? In today's Arlington real estate market there is less inventory available, yet some homes still sit on the market unsold. The real estate market is very different than just a short while ago! If you haven't noticed, everyone else already has! In this market you want to price your home or real estate realistically so it will sell quickly, so you can get as much as you can, and you don't want to be greedy. The homes price must reflect this current market and the demands of the buyers.  Selling a home is now a strategy for experienced agents, and sellers that understand the dynamics that are at play. Homes that have been on the market for extended periods of time, tend sell for far less than the original list price. So how do you set the best asking price when selling a home in Arlington Virginia? Contact us! We have the experience to assist you when selling your home!

It has been said that 90% of all home sales starts with having the right price! Pricing your home correctly from the beginning is one of the most important factors in the selling your home. Our experience has shown us that if you price your home TOO HIGH, your home will remain on the market for a long period of time - and will ultimately sell for less money than if it were priced properly from the start.

Pricing Your Arlington VA Home to Sell!


If you price your home TOO LOW, you may sell it quickly, but for less money than it is worth. Clearly, determining the correct price in which to sell your home is very important in maximizing its value to you. For results that count, contact Ellen NOW!

Where Should Your Home be Priced?
There are three main pricing strategies - pricing your home: above, at, or below its market value.

Priced above market value Sellers like to price their home high, thinking that someone just might pay it. That's unlikely - buyers shopping for a home know exactly what the market is like, and won't be fooled into paying more than it's worth.

Priced at market value Always a good strategy - that's what your home is worth!

Worried about setting the wrong price? Hire a professional, and experienced agent! Why?  Because if your home isn't within 5% of the average value, it's overpriced, and the list price should be dropped. Don't let your home become an old, tired listing. It will eventually sell for less than you would have received if you'd priced it properly!

Ellen doesn't play pricing games when listing a home. She list our homes at the right price. Everyone benefits! This ensures that our listings sell in the shortest time for the highest price! We feel this is the best approach! Unlike other agents that will "BUY YOUR LISTING!" (Listing your home at a higher price even if it unrealistic, because the agent knows that you need to sell.) They know that your personal needs will dictate the necessity to reduce later. Within a few weeks of listing your home at the higher price, the agent will start approaching you to reduce the price. How mean! We feel that this is emotional blackmail.
