What’s the most costly mistake you should avoid when selling a home in North Park?
Overpricing your home is the most expensive mistake. It leads to longer time on market, fewer offers, and ultimately, lower sale prices.
Why Overpricing Hurts You
- Buyers compare your price to similar homes nearby. If you’re too high, they skip your home.
- Homes that sit on the market for too long raise red flags. Buyers assume something’s wrong.
- Price drops signal desperation. It weakens your negotiating power.
What the North Park Market Tells Us
- In North Park, homes priced right often go under contract in less than 10 days.
- Overpriced listings can sit 30–60 days longer, even in a strong market.
- The McT Real Estate Group tracks local stats weekly. We’ve seen firsthand how pricing affects outcomes.
How to Price Right From the Start

- Get a comparative market analysis (CMA) from a local expert, like the McT Real Estate Group.
- Look at recently sold prices, not just active listings.
- Consider your home’s condition, upgrades, and lot size—not just square footage.
The Role of Online Pricing Tools
- Zillow estimates can be misleading. They don’t account for walkability, curb appeal, or recent updates.
- Online tools are a starting point, not a pricing strategy.
- Lean on agents who walk the neighborhood daily and talk to buyers weekly.
Avoid Emotional Pricing

- You love your home, but buyers don’t share your memories.
- Pricing based on what you need to make doesn’t match market value.
- Let data—not feelings—guide your price.
