Pricing Strategy
Why the first two weeks on market decide your sale price
Lubbock buyers are watching new listings daily through Zillow alerts and MLS feeds. A fresh listing draws the most eyeballs in its first 10–14 days — that's when you get the best offers. Overprice it, sit through that window, and you'll end up chasing the market down with price drops that signal weakness.
- • Price within 2–3% of true market value, not what you 'need' to net.
- • Avoid 'just try it high' — every week stale costs roughly 1% in final price.
- • Round numbers ($300,000) get more search hits than $299,900 on Zillow filters.
- • If you haven't had 8–10 showings in week one, the price is too high.
