One of the most common mistakes sellers make in Kitsap County is overpricing their home. And in today's market, it's not just a missed opportunity — it's actively hurting your sale.
In this video, I break down exactly why overpricing is killing listings across Kitsap County and what you can do instead.
What Happens When You Overprice:
- Fewer showings — Buyers filter by price. If you're above market, they never see your home
- Stale listing syndrome — The longer a home sits, the more buyers assume something is wrong with it
- Price reductions signal desperation — Multiple drops tell buyers you don't know your market
- You help sell your neighbor's house — Your overpriced listing makes the correctly priced home next door look like a deal
- Appraisal risk — Even if a buyer offers full price, the bank won't lend more than appraised value
The Right Approach:
Strategic pricing isn't about leaving money on the table — it's about attracting the most qualified buyers and creating competition that drives your final sale price up, not down.
