Comparables are good, but you need to make sure that they're current and that you are talking "apples & apples".

I went in a house yesterday that is in a neighborhood closeby, is similar to mine in size, has a pool and is actually newer, but it shows horribly and they have it priced $30,000 above mine.

I feel like I priced it right with the # of showings I'm getting and the feedback I'm getting from them.

I lucked out and sold my home to the very first couple who came and looked at it last July. A lot is luck, but it is great that you realize how to stage your home.
I was shocked at how so many people put their home on the market and show it exactly like they live in it. I looked at a 250,000 home with a Budweiser towel hanging on the window instead of a curtain. Some people may be able to see past that kind of thing but they gotta at least try to seperate their's from every other home on the market.
