The strongest move is not guessing high. It is matching your number to where recent asking and closing prices actually met.
If you are weighing whether to put your property on the market in Woodside, NY, the real question is how aggressive you can be on price without slowing yourself down. My answer is measured the recent market supports confident pricing, but not careless pricing.
The recent picture in Woodside, NY gives sellers a useful line to work from. The typical asking price was $1,500,000 over the previous 30 days, while the typical closed price was $1,150,000, and recent deals came together at 94.2% of asking. A typical sale also took 70 days, so price and timing are tied together. That matters because a list price is not just a number on day one. It shapes how long you stay available to the market and how much negotiating room buyers expect. In Woodside, NY, supply stood at 5.83 months recently, which reads to me as a market where solid properties can sell, but overreaching can still cost you time. Price from the likely closing range, not from the most optimistic starting number. Review where your property truly fits against the recent typical asking price of $1,500,000 and the recent typical closed price of $1,150,000. Decide in advance how much flexibility you will allow in negotiations if offers come in below list, because the recent close-to-ask level says that conversation is normal.
