Pricing Strategy Secrets: Why Your Frisco Home May Have Sat on the Market

If your Frisco home sat on the market without selling, pricing was likely a major factor. The reality is, even the most beautiful homes with excellent features will struggle to attract offers if priced incorrectly. Understanding how pricing strategy works — and applying it the right way — is the difference between a listing that expires and one that sells quickly.

Why Pricing Matters More Than You Think

Buyers shop by comparison. If your home is priced higher than similar properties, it loses attention.
Online searches filter homes by price brackets. If your price doesn’t align with buyer expectations, your home won’t even appear in their search.
A home priced too high from the beginning risks going “stale,” forcing painful price cuts later.

Common Pricing Mistakes That Lead to Expired Listings

Overpricing Based on Emotion: Sellers often value their home higher because of personal attachment. Buyers don’t.
Ignoring the Market Shift: Frisco’s market changes quickly. Pricing from last season’s comps may not reflect today’s reality.
Not Factoring in Competition: If similar homes in your neighborhood are priced lower and offer more, buyers will choose them.
Too Many Price Reductions: Repeated cuts make buyers suspicious and lead them to believe something is wrong with the property.

Statistics That Prove the Point

Homes priced correctly from the start are 50% more likely to sell within the first 30 days.
Overpriced homes average 58 more days on market compared to competitively priced homes.
According to the National Association of REALTORS®, pricing is the #1 factor influencing whether a home sells.

The Secrets to Pricing Your Home Right

Use a Data-Driven CMA: Comparative Market Analyses identify exactly where your home should be priced based on similar sold properties.
Price for Visibility: Pricing just below major search cutoffs (e.g., $499,000 instead of $505,000) captures more online buyer attention.
Account for Market Momentum: In hot Frisco markets, you can price strategically to encourage multiple offers. In slower periods, pricing competitively avoids sitting unsold.
Work with an Expert: An experienced REALTOR® understands buyer psychology and knows how to balance fair value with competitive strategy.
