Thinking of selling?
We’ll review recent sales near your home with you to define the optimal price position for current conditions. Some agents refer to these as “Comparable Sales” or “Comps.” We know that every home is unique, so carefully review your home’s features with those which have recently sold.
Buying?
There definitely is a relationship between how many other buyers are interested in a home, and how many offers the home receives. Our research shows the likely winning price range to get your offer accepted. Yes, there’s scatter in the data, but it’s much better than deciding what to offer out of thin air.
