The Biggest Pricing Mistake Sellers Make
6 October 2026
One of the biggest mistakes I see homeowners make is thinking they should price their home high and negotiate later.
That strategy may have worked in a different market.
Today, buyers have more homes to choose from, and they're comparing every listing before deciding which ones are worth seeing.
When a home is priced correctly from day one, it attracts more attention, creates urgency, and often leads to stronger offers.
But when it's overpriced, buyers tend to scroll right past it. And the longer a home sits on the market, the more negotiating power buyers gain.
That's why pricing isn't about testing the market.
It's about positioning your home to stand out from the competition and giving it the best opportunity to sell for top dollar.
