A direct look at how to position a home well
If I were preparing a move in Middletown, RI, I would pay close attention to how close buyers are coming to asking price. Last month, homes closed at 97% of asking, and that is close enough to matter.
Last month, Middletown, RI homes closed at 97% of asking and the median sold price reached $718,000. That tells me there is still a real penalty for pricing without discipline. My advice to sellers is straightforward. I would position the home so the first number makes sense to someone comparing recent closings, not just to someone hoping for the best. Choose a price that can stand up quickly. Early reaction is where the leverage lives. Prepare for buyers to compare carefully. That is the kind of market this is. Keep Middletown, RI in the center of the decision. The local close pattern should lead the conversation.
