Selling an Overpriced Home |
|
Overpricing is the number one mistake home sellers said they made when listing their homes, according to a new national e-mail survey conducted by HouseHunt, Inc. The margin was nearly three-to-one over the second choice.
Survey respondents said their next biggest mistake was “dealing with the same real estate agent who represented the buyer,” thereby setting up a possible conflict of interest and possibly a perception that the buyer was getting a better deal.
Third biggest mistake was “failure to disclose known defects or problems.” Virtually tied for fourth place were: “under pricing their properties” and “not utilizing Internet technology to market their properties.”
