LIST PRICE REALITY CHECK
Right Price to Sell Home
Patience Won't Sell Your House.
Pricing Will.

4 common red flags to watch for
One of the most important, but often overlooked, changes in today's housing market is this: average list prices have held steady for the past few years. That's a big change from the big climb in home prices a few years ago. Buyers are a lot more price sensitive now.
