Price
First, you need to know if your area and price range is in a buyer's market. A buyer's market is characterized by big inventories of six months’ supply, fewer buyers making offers, low offers, and many seller concessions. A seller market is characterized by low supply of six months on hand or less, heavy buyer traffic, multiple offers, and close to full price offers.
The Bankers, buyer’s agents and buyers all have access to the same details that your agent has given you. If you overprice for the present market, your potential buyers won't get their loans approved.
Condition
Let your real estate agent to help you market your home by putting it in the best condition possible. Buyer's pet peeves may be easy items to fix, but you don't want your home to go to the bottom of their list because you failed to paint, replace the carpet sometimes you have to invest small money to make money.
Location
You can't do much about your home's location, but you can make your home more attractive with lovely landscaping, fences to block out ugly views and sounds, a lower price and immaculate condition. If you do have a great location, don't overprice.
It's hard not to be over-romantic about the home you have lived in for years, but to buyers, your home is a service. Like you, they simply want to make an excellent deal on a home they love.
You will fast discover out what real estate agents and their buyers think of your home. If you get a fast offer, you know you priced it right for the place, condition, and the current market.
