Confused by Feedback on your Calgary Home For Sale?

If you have ever sold your home with Rob, or if you have it currently listed for sale, you know that we always contact Realtors who have shown your property for feedback.  We try to find out how their clients felt about your home overall, as well as if they think it is priced fairly or not. Sometimes we receive conflicting feedback - for example, with one of our listings, we had one Realtor say they thought that it was overpriced, and another say it was priced well. 

With conflicting reviews such as this, it is important to note that the showing Realtor is protecting the interest of their clients, and that their feedback may be an attempt to put the property in a more favourable position for their client.  A Realtor representing a buyer who is interested in the property might say they thought it was overpriced, in hopes that the price is lower.  A Realtor who might have a client with a competing listing might say that the property is priced "just right", in order for their listing to stay competitively priced.

Your best bet is to work with a Realtor who is knowledgeable and experienced, and can review comparable properties in the market, and tell you where you stand.
