I would treat the first price as the most important one.
The first question I would ask is simple will your pricing hold up once buyers see the home? In Southeast Oklahoma City, OK, last month's median sold price was $269,900 and the typical asking price was $282,445, so the spread is not wide enough to ignore.
Last month's median sold price was $269,900, and the typical asking price was $282,445. I would treat that as a signal to be careful, because the market still rewards clean positioning more than optimistic pricing.
A typical sale took 47 days last month, which tells me the first few weeks matter a great deal. If I were preparing a listing in Southeast Oklahoma City, OK, I would want the launch price, the presentation, and the response plan aligned before day one.
Start with a defensible price. Watch showing traffic early. Be ready to adjust if the market is quiet.
