Price it at what you are willing to take for the property, not what you would like for it. Common mistake many sellers have done in the last 3 years is chase the market down. List it for X, then drop it to X, then drop it again, etc. Price it "to sell", not be "for sale" (in my area most of the time it is about a 20% difference in price). If anyone calls with a price even $5 lower you can say "thanks but no thanks and good luck on your home search" and carry on.
Here is the history on a house I made an offer on last night:
$750,000 on 3/28/08
$733,599 on 4/29/08
$719,900 on 6/17/08
$699,900 on 8/05/08
$664,900 on 9/30/08
$648,900 on 11/04/08
If they would have listed it for $648k in 3/08 it most likely would have sold. My offer back then was only $40K less than what they are at now.
My current offer? Doesn't start with a 6 or a 5...

I'm hoping that people who are trying to get rid of homes that they bought with no down payment, etc will be looking at my condo. I know the market's bad right now but it doesn't really cost me anything to list it, I don't think. I just want to get out of it what I owe and pay my agent's commission and walk away. I haven't put much into it and just look at it pretty much as an apartment that I've had for a few years.

if you dont know your Realtor that well or if you arent sure you will like her/him, only list for 3 months or so. If you like them, you can always relist, if you dont, then you can get another Realtor

Well alrighty then .... this morning I saw one of my friends that I havent seen in a while and of course she asked me how my love life was (3rd person to ask me that in the last week) and of course my standard reply is "battery operated" .... then I talked to another friend that I havent seen in a few weeks and she starts tellin about how this guy came up to her in shopping center parking lot when she was with her mom and son and he told her how he had noticed her at another store and told his friend that was with him that if he saw her again he would speak to her so he was speaking to her again cuz his friend had locked him out of his vehicle until he did and now they are dating ... (kinda cool actually) and so even tho my horror scope told me not to do anything drastic today .... I did ........
I called my mother :rofl: I listened to her talk about my dad for a while and now the desire to date is gone again :sifone:
