Crucial Pricing and Creative Planning for an Up and Down Oahu Housing Market showed the plan I present to seller in listing their home for sale. In this case it proved to be the best thing to do. We listed it for $369,000 and on the first Open House and showing we had MANY guests and multiple offers.
We recorded on July 6th, 2010 and the townhouse sold for $383.000!

Wow, good for you and the sellers, Sally. Are you seeing more homes selling at over-asking?

Because of the whacky market (a few short sales, a few regular sales and mostly 3 bdrms) I had a hard time with comps. Our inventory is half what it was a year ago....maybe the reason for good properties going quick!
Sally - congratulations! this is always something to celebrate!
Sally that would be rare around here for a property to not only sell over the asking price, but for that much over the asking price.
Sally - Congratulations, sounds like you had a brilliant listing strategy that paid off in a tough market. I've seen the underpricing strategy work well on certain properties in our area as well.
Congratulations on another over asking price closing. I am happy to see that. I may have one coming up at the same complex.
