Whatever your definition of success (everyone’s definition of success is and should be different), we all want more. That desire for more can blind us to what we already have–and should be grateful for.

With all the information readily available online, today’s buyers know exactly what to expect when it comes to fair market value, which should directly impact the price of your house. Ask your broker or agent for a comparative market analysis, find out how much your home is worth, then price your home 10-15% below that number. If your home looks like a great deal, it will generate more interest, garner more visits and ultimately inspire more offers (maybe even above asking price!). On the other hand, if the price is too high, buyers will shy away. The longer your home lingers on the market, the more likely it is to sell for below original asking price. 80% of marketing your home to sell is pricing it right, so do your research and be competitive!
