The key to selling a home is always in the price, location and floor plan of a home. Whether you are priced competitively, below values for a quick sale, statistically & accurately priced based on square footage of a home that is selling based on previous comparables due to livable space, size of a lot, location, and the floor plan is functional/spacious.

The hardest perspective with a seller is you do have a subjective option based on your memories, experience and the amount of money/time you have invested.
When all factors above are considered we need to make sure that the values and representation  of a home is clearly communicated in a listing, whether this is done with values, advertisement, accessibility to a home, exposure and negotiations for a sale.

When valuing a home, all should be consider, condition of the home, the land size (land never depcireciates) however a home can depreciate due to the condition, up keep and updates that have been made on the home. This is true for newer homes as well, consideration of the yard, landscaping, style of paint and floor plan layout.

• Style of a home - Rambler, 2 story, Tudor, etc.
• Functional floor plan – layout of bedrooms, room size, updates in a home, views, lot specifications, bathrooms, etc.
• Year of the home
• Location, equity growing areas, well established areas, high traffic areas, and quality of life.
• Value vs. Cost - Is the house priced competively, compared to the market? What are the value of homes selling vs. what has become stagnant in either a buyer's or seller's market? These markets do change so this essential when making a decision on a list price.
• What is the market's current condition? This is essential when making a decision on a list price.
