I would use the recent closed range to test whether your target is realistic.
If you are tempted to aim high and see what happens, I would check the recent closing range first. In Guilderland, NY, the last three months of closed homes ran from $160,000 to $999,500, with a typical closed price of $532,450, so I would make sure your price sits where your home's condition and size can support it.
The safest way to pressure-test your asking price is to look at the actual closing spread. Over the last three months in Guilderland, NY, closed homes ranged from $160,000 to $999,500, and the typical closed price was $532,450. That is a wide range, which means pricing has to be earned. I would not lean on the top end unless your home truly resembles the stronger closings on size, finish level, and overall condition. Pull apart the recent comparables by age, square footage, and sale price. Be honest about where your home fits inside that range. In Guilderland, NY, ambitious pricing works better when the evidence is obvious.
