The Role of Pricing in Expired Listings: Why Your Frisco Home May Have Missed the Mark

If your Frisco home expired without selling, chances are pricing and marketing weren’t the only issues. Many listings stall or collapse because of weak negotiation skills. Deals fall apart during inspections, appraisals, or contract

negotiations — leaving sellers frustrated and homes unsold.

That’s why working with a REALTOR® and Broker who is a skilled negotiator is essential. Strong negotiation is often the deciding factor between a home that lingers on the market and one that sells successfully.

Where Negotiation Breaks Down in Expired Listings

1. Inspection Issues

Buyers often request repairs or concessions after inspections. Agents without negotiation training may push too hard or cave too easily — either way, deals collapse.

2. Appraisal Gaps

If an appraisal comes in lower than the contract price, inexperienced agents often lose deals instead of finding creative solutions.

3. Buyer Financing Hurdles

Buyers sometimes need extra time or adjustments. A skilled negotiator keeps the deal alive while protecting the seller’s position.

4. Multiple Offer Missteps

Even in competitive markets, mishandling multiple offers can cause buyers to walk away, leaving sellers with no deal at all.

Why Negotiation Skills Matter in Frisco

According to national data, 36% of deals that fall apart do so because of breakdowns during negotiations.
A REALTOR® with strong negotiation skills can increase seller proceeds by 5–10% on average.
In luxury markets like Frisco, negotiation often involves complex terms — not just price.

How an Expired Listing Expert Saves the Deal

Prepares Sellers: Sets realistic expectations and explains likely buyer objections.
Creates Solutions: Offers repair credits, concessions, or timing adjustments that keep deals moving.
Manages Emotions: Keeps negotiations professional and focused on closing, not conflict.
Protects Equity: Balances concessions with seller net proceeds to maximize outcomes.
