Strategy Decide which segment you are in based on your home's condition and features, then price and market accordingly so buyers do not feel a disconnect. I recommend you focus your prep and marketing on the items that support a higher price per square foot, because that is where premium outcomes come from. Plan your negotiation boundaries before the first showing, so you do not make reactive decisions when feedback starts coming in.
