Offering Incentives
Sellers typically adopt one of two selling strategies, the rock
bottom or the drop-down approach
Rock bottom sellers don’t like to hang around, so they price
their home at the rock bottom price they would take. Drop-down sellers
set their asking price several thousand pounds above the price they
would actually take in hopes of getting lucky, but they are willing
to come down in price.
The pricing strategy you use will probably depend on how much time
you have to test out the market. If you want to use the drop-down
approach, you should sit down with your agent and work out a schedule
of how long you’re willing to wait before lowering your price.
You should plan out a regular schedule of price reductions until
you find a level that attracts buyers.
