Timing and Pricing Strategy
Optimal: 3rd week of March or 1st week of April. Price: list 3–5% below market value to trigger bidding wars. Real case in Saint-Michel: assessment $198,000, listed $269,000, sold $287,000 with 3 competing offers.
Photography and Staging: Investments That Pay
90% of buyers start online. Professional photography ($300–600) = 3–5x return. Staging generates +5–10% on price and −30–50% on time on market.
The 4 Critical Weeks
Weeks 1–2: max visit availability, respond within 2 hours. Week 2–3: evaluate offers, never accept first without checking other interest. Week 3–4: strategic negotiation. Pre-listing inspection reduces post-inspection price reduction requests.
