Price your Home Correctly from the Beginning π π
Nearly 1 in 3 Portland-area listings had a price reduction in August.
The lesson isn’t that homes aren’t selling. It’s that buyers have enough choices that they won’t rescue an optimistic asking price.
Today’s buyers compare homes carefully and recognize value. If a home feels overpriced, they often pass—even when they like it.
That’s why the initial price matters so much. Pricing thoughtfully from the beginning creates interest, attracts more buyers, and puts the seller in a stronger negotiating position.
