Common home-seller mistakes (and how to avoid them)

Most lost time and money on a sale comes from a handful of avoidable mistakes. Here are the big ones.

The mistakes that cost the most

  • Overpricing — the home sits, then sells for less than it should have.
  • Skimping on presentation and photography — buyers scroll right past.
  • Being hard to show — every missed showing is a missed buyer.
  • Letting emotion drive negotiation instead of the numbers.
  • Choosing an agent on commission alone rather than results and marketing.
