Paging Real Estate Gurus of the OT

Had a CMA (Comparable Market Analysis) ran on my home. Results came back favorable (more than what I paid) lol. However, it seems like most of the other homes on the analysis sold for 4-10k less than asking. My question is; is there a rule of thumb for making offers?

Just make sure to include as many lols in the exchange with the buyers

Generally the longer a house sits on the market, the more leverage you have as a buyer

That is pretty normal depending on what price range we are talking out.
Also, keep in mind that there could easily be 5-10K in seller concessions on top of that that might not be reflected in the analysis.

Are sellers concessions not disclosed in LA on CMA's? They are here in TN

Ask 4-10k more.

Lots of variables, depends on upgrades, motivation of seller, etc.

I doubt many real estate gurus still wear pagers.
Might have better luck with a group text, WhatsApp, Snapchat, etc.

The discount in your market from asking to sale price should be factored into your initial price. Assume there will negotiation, if the market is good, you should be able to list a bit over what the house is expected to appraise for with the understanding that the final agreed price will be less than you ask.
Most agents consider an offer within 10% of the asking prIce to be “non offensive” and at least elicit a counter-offer from the seller.
