A closer look at how close sales are landing

If you are thinking about listing, the question is not just price. It is how close the market is willing to come to it, and last month in The Fan District, VA, recent offers landed at 98.9% of asking.
That is close enough to tell me the market is respecting price, but not so loose that I would expect a seller to get careless. A strong list price still needs to be right the first time. I read that as a market where a clean launch matters more than a loud one. In The Fan District, VA, the best outcomes will usually come from homes that are positioned with intent and shown well from day one. Lead with a number you can defend. Be ready for serious attention early. Do not rely on a second chance.
