If you are told that your home is worth less than you had hoped, it is time to decide if you really need to move or if you would just like to move. Sometimes you do not have a choice such as an employer relocation, but if you can stay there for just another year, it could mean a huge difference.
It is very important that you interview at least 2 agents. In relocation especially, the relocation company requires two different agents to perform a market analysis. If the values are not within 5% of one another, they require a third opinion. Why should you be any different? It is important to have a realistic picture of what the market currently is and what it was in the last 60 days. Many markets are too unpredictable to use any older comparables than that. This market is one of a pricing war and a beauty contest. There are still homes that sell in the first few days to the first buyer that views them for this exact reason. Price and condition are just as important as the location! You need an agent that can not only price you "in" the market, but be realistic with you and get your home sold in YOUR time frame. Call me for your free home consultation so that we can see what this market holds for you and your home. I would love to help you and your family make a move!
