I mentioned how overshoot is part of the program. It will be a miracle if the sellers’ expectations can adjust quickly enough to salvage the rest of the selling season.
It’s probably never been so hard in the history of real estate to get the list-price right!
Even if the price is ‘right’, a new listing might not sell right away just because of buyers wanting to wait-and-see for a while longer. Sellers won’t know what to do, so they won’t do anything and they will wait-and-see too. Only a few might drop their price enough to make a difference.
Welcome to Plateau City – we’ve arrived!
