🧠 Wisdom Wednesday: The most important work happens BEFORE the sign goes on the lawn.

In today’s market, I spend more time upfront with my clients — because understanding the market before we list is critical.

📊 Why?

• Inventory levels are high 📈
• Buyers have multiple options
• Price sensitivity is stronger than ever
• Overpricing = longer days on market and eventual reductions

✅ When sellers fully understand what’s happening right now, we price right from day one — and that creates activity, showings, and real offers.

💡 Knowledge is power — and that’s what helps my sellers succeed.

🎯 The secret to selling right now? Study your competition.

Every week with my motivated sellers, we take a close look at what’s selling in their marketplace:

✅ What’s listed right now?
✅ What went under contract?
✅ What actually sold?
✅ Most important: Why did the buyers choose that home over ours?

In today’s market, pricing isn’t a one-time decision — it’s a moving target. The more we study the competition, the faster we can make the right adjustments to attract the next buyer.

Because in this shifting market 👉 data wins.
