Where did you get the square footage number in your new listing? Why is it important?
Let's look at an example of the raw numbers... a 2,500 square foot home has a list price of $125 per square foot (or $312,500). Unfortunately, the home actually has 2,000 square feet of gross living area. Your list price is $62,500 too high.
This is an extreme example, but I see instances of incorrect gross living area calculations far too often. People make mistakes.
If you are uncertain about your square footage number, I can help. Contact me for an accurate building measurement and sketch.
