Aim high only when the market will actually support it
You are trying to decide if you can push your list price and still get paid. In Henrico, VA, recent closings at about 99.8% of asking last month support strong pricing, but only if your home earns it.
One number to respect from recent data is 99.8% of asking on closed deals last month in Henrico, VA. A typical sale took 30 days, and supply stood at 1.18 months during the same period. The practical impact is that buyers have been paying close to list when the home is positioned correctly, not when a seller simply chooses a higher number. Some metrics were not reported for this period. Without property-level segmentation, the safest interpretation is that strong results are available, but they depend on execution and fit. If your home is updated, well-maintained, and photographs exceptionally, price confidently but stay inside a defensible range. Build your plan around the 30-day typical timeline if your early showing pace is soft, adjust quickly instead of waiting. Protect your leverage by preventing a stale listing, because even in Henrico, VA a tight market does not forgive a price that buyers cannot justify.
