The asking price you choose can influence everything that happens next.

One of the biggest mistakes homeowners make is pricing their property based on what they want to get rather than what the current market supports.

Before deciding on a price, look at:
​Recently sold homes: What have comparable properties actually sold for?
​Active competition: What other homes will buyers compare yours against?
​Your home’s condition: How do its features, updates, and overall presentation compare?
​Current market conditions: Are buyers competing for homes, or taking more time to make decisions?
​
Remember, your asking price isn’t just a number. It’s part of your selling strategy.

The right pricing approach can help attract serious buyers, generate interest, and position your home competitively from day one.

Do you really need an open house to sell your home? Not necessarily.

Open houses can be a useful part of a real estate marketing plan, but they're not automatically the best strategy for every property.

There are situations where I might recommend one.

For example:
​Your home has been on the market for a while.
​We've recently adjusted the asking price.
​The property has a feature that might make buyers hesitate before scheduling a showing.
​We want to give additional buyers an opportunity to walk through the home.

But here's what sellers should understand: an open house is just one marketing tool. It's not the entire marketing strategy.

Serious buyers can schedule private showings, ask questions through their agents, and evaluate the property without waiting for an open house.

When I work with sellers, I want to understand the property, the market, and their goals before deciding which marketing activities make sense.

I'm not going to recommend an open house just because it's what everyone else is doing.

Your home deserves a marketing plan built around YOUR situation.
