“Pricing a luxury home is not about comparables - it's about positioning. We analyze every competing listing, every recent sale, and every buyer in the pipeline before recommending a price. Overpricing a luxury home by 5% can add 90 days to your sale.”

What to Consider
- On the open market, luxury homes take longer to sell than median-priced homes - the Austin luxury market often runs 90-120 days; strategic pricing, staging, and our off-market network are built to beat that
- Professional staging typically starts around $3,500 and runs to about $6,500 by size and scope - luxury staging often returns about 3x the investment
- Compass Concierge can front pre-sale prep costs, repaid at closing
