The 7 Dangers of Overpricing Your Long Beach Homes and CondosThe 7 Dangers of Overpricing Your Long Beach Homes and CondosOverpricing Your Long Beach Homes and Condos, is not a good idea. Thinking that raising the price to leave wiggle room for negotiation is the first trap to avoid. That game is old and played out, buyers aren't interested in playing. They want to offer you less than asking price and they want asking price to be at or below market. They want "a deal" and if they don't get it, they aren't going to buy.
Here is a little sneak preview of what you will be up against if you decide to test the waters and list your home or condo above market value.
7 Dangers of Overpricing Your Long Beach Homes
1) MINIMIZES OFFERS
Overpriced listings get less showings. Agents often will not show overpriced listings and lose interest
in overpriced properties that sit on the market for any extended length of time without drastic price reductions. With so much inventory on the market it is in the buyers best interest for the agent to show homes within the buyers price range; agents also do not want to lose credibility with their buyers. Agents do
not spend as much time showing these homes and condos as they might if they had been priced
right at the beginning. http://www.longbeachrealestatehome.com/0021D2 Posted on March 03, 2008 09:35:19 by Laurie.Manny

To most people, real estate appraisal is a rather obscure field. Thats because appraisal is mostly a business-to-business profession where clients of appraisers are usually banks, attorneys or other professional organizations - rarely homeowners. I was invited by Laurie to connect with thousands of her loyal visitors to shed light into the world of appraisers, breakdown common misconceptions revolving this illusive industry and share my personal insights about the Long Beach real estate market. Through a series of exclusive articles here on LBREH, Ill attempt to do so in plain language.
To start, real estate appraisers occupy paradoxical strata in the real estate food chain. That is, were the least paid of all facilitators in a finance transaction, yet were the independent enablers that enrich the lives of the star players (agents, brokers, buyers, sellers). When framed this way, it appears that being the noble body of honesty and integrity totally blows. But it doesnt, its truly a great profession and highly lucrative once you understand it.
So lets take it one step at a time.
