Pricing your Marin county home- do zeros matter?

February 25th, 2008 By Ginger Wilcox

How should we price that Marin home?  We have determined we want to be just under two million.  Do we price it at:

  • $1,999,999?
  • $1,999,000?
  • $1,999,575?

DING, DING, DING.  We have a winner!

According to a recent study by Cornell University, home buyers pay more for precisely priced properties.  (trying saying that 3 times fast!)  The study found that home buyers tend to perceive that a price is smaller if there are digits at the end instead of zeros.  You can read the full story about precise pricing here.

So, looking for the best price for your Marin County home?  Drop the zeros.

Marin’s Stormy Skies

Marin schools are back in session Monday morning after a week off for ski week.   We returned to Marin yesterday from our Tahoe ski trip, leaving in the morning to avoid the nasty storm scheduled to hit and dump snow on Tahoe.

Pacific Union is going green!

February 13th, 2008 By Ginger Wilcox

Pacific Union GMAC Real Estate is in the process of becoming a green certified business. I find this very exciting! The first visible step was in our busy little kitchen. We no longer have disposable plates, cups, etc. Instead we have washable plates, bowls & cups. The office is using post-consumer recycled paper towels and napkins. Those little individual sugars and creamers are replaced with larger containers to eliminate waste. All those plastic water bottles- gone!

I noticed my fax confirmations were being printed on reused paper.

Some of the steps to go green are pretty simple, others will take some adjustment. I am thrilled that Pacific Union GMAC real estate is taking the steps to help preserve our environment!
