I would make pricing the first decision, not the last.

Before you list, the question is whether your number fits the market that is actually moving. In The Museum District, VA, last month gave me enough to say that the pricing strategy has to be deliberate from the start.
Last month, the typical active list price was $674,900 while newly pending homes were at $364,950. I would not ignore that gap, because it tells me where the market is accepting offers and where it is not. For a primary seller, I would use that as a guide for launch discipline. A strong home still needs a price that lines up with how buyers are behaving right now. Price with care, watch response early, and adjust before the listing loses momentum. In The Museum District, VA, I would treat the first week as a real test.
