Choosing an asking price means balancing your goals with evidence relevant to your home. My starting point is a review of similar completed sales, followed by competing listings.
The latest market report includes Lonsdale single-family homes, condominiums, townhouses, and apartments. The typical asking price among homes listed for sale was $424,950. The typical sale price was $345,250. Homes sold for an average of 100.2% of their asking prices.
Asking prices and sale prices describe listed and sold groups, so their difference does not establish a negotiated discount. The average percentage of asking price that homes sold for cannot establish what your home will command. I would use completed sales to assess a reasonable price, then examine competing listings to understand the alternatives.
Gather details about your home's condition, improvements, and unfinished work so we can make useful comparisons with similar homes. Separate completed sales from homes listed for sale, and review differences in size, condition, and features with me. Choose an asking price with a clear rationale and decide when to reassess it using showing feedback and relevant sales.
