Price Well 4 - Three critical skills needed for value range accuracy

Time has an influence on the monetary outcome when you buy or sell residential real estate--also affected is convenience and hassle factors during your purchase or sale

Selling in the upper end of the value range usually takes longer.
Buying in the lower end of the value range usually takes longer.
Why can't you sell high or buy low quickly?
  Sellers do not rush to the market, pricing as low as they can to help a buyer.
  Buyers do not rush to rush to the market, hoping to pay as much as they can to help a seller.
  In reality, most buyers and sellers are hoping to do as well as they can, and expectations meet realities during negotiation, with compromise usually the rule.
  Two rare exceptions to the rules above are extremely motivated or uniformed parties.
When selling a home, targeting the upper end of value takes longer and generates fewer offers; by positioning price in the middle of the value range, you will sell faster.
As a buyer, focusing on the low end of the value range takes longer and many offers are not accepted; aiming at the middle of the value range speeds up your home purchase.
The Stickey Team process systems (Buy Well Essentials and Sell Well Essentials) are designed to navigate the realities above and improve your outcome in the value range.
It takes hard work and being smart to support your position on price (relative to the range of value, for the home you want to buy/sell) against hopes and needs of the other party.
