Here is the clearest way to judge your timing and price before you list.
If you are thinking about putting your home on the market, the main question is whether you can price with confidence or whether you need to stay conservative. My answer is that recent numbers in Commerce Township, MI support a confident approach, but only if the price is grounded in what buyers actually closed on over the previous 30 days.
Over the previous 30 days, supply stood at 2.05 months, recent offers landed at 98.3% of asking, and a typical closed sale took 34 days. That is a useful combination for a seller in Commerce Township, MI because homes are still moving in a relatively controlled window without a big discount from asking. Pricing still needs discipline. A typical asking price among active homes was $544,499 last month, while a typical closed price was $395,000, so I would not use the highest current asking numbers as your benchmark. I would anchor pricing to the recent closed range first, then use the current active price picture to judge how much room your home really has based on condition, updates, and competition in Commerce Township, MI. Start with a hard pricing review against recent closed sales, not wishful asking prices. Fix the details that affect first-showing confidence, because a typical active listing was sitting at 36 days recently and buyers are comparing options carefully. Launch with a clean strategy, strong photos, and a price that can hold near market instead of forcing a later cut.
