Why the current gap between list prices and closed prices deserves attention
If you are about to list, the hardest part may be choosing a price that feels ambitious without becoming a problem. My advice in Corona, NY is to respect where deals are actually closing, because that gap is large enough to shape your outcome.
Recent numbers in Corona, NY put the typical asking price at $570,000 last month and the typical closed price at $440,000. Buyers also paid about 96% of asking on recent sales, and a typical sale took 120 days, so pricing too high can easily cost both time and leverage. I would treat those figures as a signal to lead with credibility. When supply is at 12.33 months and buyers have options, the homes that feel overpriced get filtered out quickly, even before a serious conversation starts. Review competing listings, but do not let them become your pricing anchor if they have not sold. Focus on what would make a buyer act, not just what would make you feel better on day one. Prepare a pricing plan with room for negotiation, and be ready to respond quickly if early feedback points to resistance.
