Notice a said "not listing too high" versus "not overpriced." The difference isin thsi market no one offers or pays the listing price. If a buyer listed a home at exactly the right price, they would still get low-balled off whatever they set the price as. So they can't list it at exactly what they expect to get paid. I'm confident this house will go for something under $999K which will also avoid the extra tax on $1M+ home purchases. <br /> <br />That said, I don't think it is that over-priced on the listing when you compare the RECENT comps. The $1M+ homes in Cranbury are a totally different market segment than the less expensive homes and have so far proven more resistant to major price drops. If you look at sales this year on Liedtke and Shady Brook, for example, you will see that they go for pretty close to their appraised values. <br /> <br />Also, keep in mind prices are relative. There is a certain group of people committed to buying a home in Cranbury looking for the best home they can afford at the best deal they can get. One of the reasons the last Shady Brook home sold so quickly for so high is it was the only real option at that time for a committed buyer looking for a very large, newish home in Cranbury. Similarly, right now there are several but of them this is by far the most competitively priced. I doubt the other home owners are willing to be as competitive as these people if they started their prices so much higher so at the end of the day this may be the best deal for a committed buyer in town even if the sellers refuse to budge much.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Sep 18 2008, 11:30 am EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Cranbury home $1,019,000 (Petty Rd.)</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">While more competitively priced than others, it's still a overpriced.

It puts them to shame. <br /> <br />Good luck to the seller. Though alternatively it does worry me a little about the state of the market here.
