Some sellers list at the rock-bottom price they'd really take, because they hate bargaining.
If you want to try that, and if you have the luxury of enough time to feel out the market, sit down with us and work out a schedule in advance. If there haven't been many prospects viewing your home after three weeks, you may need to lower your list price. If that doesn't bring any prospective buyers, you may need to lower your list price again. Plan on doing that regularly until you find a level that attracts buyers. Make a written schedule in advance, before emotion takes over and you're tempted to dig your heels in.
