Arriving at a realistic price to ask for your home


When determining the price to ask for your home, you'll need to know how other comparable homes in your area are priced, what comparable homes have actually sold for, and what homes were on the market, but did not sell.



You may want to order an appraisal to help you obtain this information.  Generally they run between $300.00 and $500.00 and will give you a good idea of what comparable homes are selling for in your area.  Should you decide to list your home for sale with an agent, the agent you choose will provide you with a "Competitive Marketing Analysis" gathered from information he or she can obtain through the Multiple Listing Service and his or her own experience.  Either way, you can get a reliable price structure for your home by compiling this information.
