Approximate Market Value PRICING DETAILS
Please note, the above range is a recommended pricing strategy. We will discuss the quantitative and qualitative factors that will ultimately determine the listing price. Our goal in discussing this range is aligned with our opinion of what will garner more views which leads to more property visits and, ultimately, the highest and best offer. It's important to note, especially this time of year, the terms of an offer, while secondary to price, are extremely important. Accepting the highest offer with inferior terms could lead to the sale falling apart and the need to go back on the market in a weaker market. We know from experience and from the comparable sales that the market will determine the value. PRICE INFORMATION Average
