If you are a seller in a buyer’s market, the most important single step you can take to sell your home is to set the right price. Pricing has always been essential to selling a home, and competition from other sellers should encourage you to price your home aggressively. Beyond that and making your home physically appealing, sellers can also help themselves by offering incentives to buyers. For instance, sellers may offer to pay buyers’ moving expenses or one month’s mortgage payment. Sellers may also sweeten the pot by agreeing to make a contribution toward closing costs. In the final analysis, this may cost less than a price reduction and be just the thing that cash- strapped buyers need.

A lower price may not be the best strategy to sell your home sooner. Assistance with financing and other strategies may provide you with a better, ultimate ‘bottom line’ figure.
