So I took a 5% drop. Meanwhile, median was still going up.
I don’t mean to pick on you PS but this illustrates the problem with using one data point to justify a conclusion. Did you necessarily have to take the 5% drop? How long were you on the market?
You were, it seems, an emotional seller who still hasn’t quite resolved whether you accepted the right offer. Could the comparable that you based the $830k number on been attributable to an emotional buyer?
What I’m getting at is the human element introduces a lot of noise into the data. Would two people selling the same house at the same time sell at the same price? Of course not.
