Before you go asking for a reduction or a 'price improvement', there are things to say to your seller and things NOT to say to your seller. Let's start with what NOT to say and do: 1. Do NOT bring up the price on every call you have with your seller. The #1 complaint from expired sellers in today's shifting market is: 'The only time I heard from my agent was to ask me to reduce my price!' Sellers want to know what you're doing for them before they're willing to budge on their listing price.

REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris 3.  Do NOT ignore the market conditions and assume that every listing you take will instantly sell with multiple offers for whatever price you put on it. Maybe the average days on the market for a listing like yours have risen to 60 but you didn't realize it. Maybe the average list-to-sell price ratio isn't 105% anymore and has dropped to 97% so that 'lowball offer' wasn't a lowball at all! Know your facts. Maybe you now have 5 homes you're competing with but you assumed there were none and it would be a feeding frenzy. Review what's going on weekly for all of your active listings.
