Why not to overprice your Mississauga property?
The Importance of Early Activity
As soon as a Mississauga home/condo comes on the market, there is a flurry of
activity surrounding it. This is a crucial time when Mississauga
Toronto real estate
professionals and potential Mississauga buyers sit up and take notice. If the
property is overpriced, it doesn't take long for interested parties to
lose interest. By the time the price drops, a majority of buyers are
lost.
Many sellers believe that if they price their home high initially,
they can lower it later. On the contrary, when a home is priced too
high it experiences little or no activity. Gradually the price is
dropped but by that time it's been for sale too long and buyers will
be wary and reject the property. Resulting in sale of property for
less than it's worth or an expired
listing. Remember, buyers are always keen to know property's
days on market.
The single most important decision you will make with Amit is
determining the right asking
or listing price for your Mississauga property.
Once you've achieved a realistic sales price, you can count on your
property being professionally marketed and promoted to bring more
buyers to your door. You can also expect to sell your Mississauga home/condo for the
best possible price in the least amount of time.
Factors that influence overpricing
- Extensive renovations / hidden costs
- Desire to purchase in a higher-priced area
- Original cost of home was too high
- Lack of real market information
- Building in "bargaining room"
- Perceived emotional value
Missing the Right Buyer
You may think that interested buyers "can always make an offer,"
but if the home is overpriced, potential buyers looking in a lower
price range will never see it. Those who can afford a home at your
asking price will soon recognize that they can get a better value
elsewhere.
The benefits of pricing your property right
- 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.
- Real Estate Professionals will be enthusiastic about
presenting your property to buyer.
