Which Factors Affect the Price of a Luxury Home?


A lot of different factors go into the art of pricing a luxury home. Today we're talking about a few of the important ones you need to know about.


Pricing luxury real estate is a complicated process. There are a lot of factors that determine the value of such properties, and today, I wanted to key in on four of the most important ones:
  1. Location: You've heard the phrase 'location, location, location' again and again because it's true. Is the home on a golf course? Does it look out over the water or polo fields? Location matters and adds a lot of value!
  2. Size: Luxury buyers tend to want more space, so the larger the property, the larger the value. 
  3. Special amenities and uniqueness: Every luxury property has something unique about it like heated marble floors, an infinity pool, or retractable screen enclosures. What does a home have that lets us tell the story of its uniqueness?
  4. Comparables: You won't find the perfect match, but you will find that these comparables will help you find the market value to price the listing at. 
Pricing luxury property is both a science and an art. If you're interested in learning more about joining our luxury sales team, click here to set up an appointment with me. Until then, make it a great day!

Why Is Qualifying Luxury Buyers Important?


Not all buyers who look at luxury homes can afford them. There are a few simple things you can do to prevent wasting your time with unqualified buyers.


There are a lot of people out there that love looking at luxury homes. However, if you’re an agent listing a luxury home, how do you tell the serious buyers from the ones who just like to look? A lot of luxury home sellers will require their buyer to have a pre-approval prior to looking at the home. This ensures you don’t waste time dealing with unqualified buyers.


Why Is Qualifying Luxury Buyers Important?


Another way to make sure your buyer has enough funds is by simply asking them how they plan on paying for the home. The answer will either be cash or financing. If it’s financing, you want to be sure they have a pre-approval from a lender. If they don’t, then recommend a lender to them. If they are a cash buyer, you’ll need proof of funds as well.

Qualifying buyers is simply smart business when selling luxury homes. If you have any questions for us, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you.
