The Three Types Of Price
Introduction
Most, if not all pricing strategies are based around three broad types of price. Here I discuss what these types of price are and how they relate to each other.
The perfect price, the fast price, and the risky price
There are essentially three broad types of price: the perfect price, the fast price, and the risky price.
The perfect price is essentially the market value of our home (or even above), for example, £1,000,000. Naturally, this is the price that we want to achieve.
The fast price would be regarded as the figure below the market value of our home, for example, £900,000.
The risky price would be regarded as the figure above the market value of our home, for example, £1,100,000.
How to achieve the perfect price?
As you may already be aware from going through this guide, I am a strong proponent for pricing our home in such a way to encourage strong buyer engagement, in particular, presenting a price that is sufficiently compelling to excite buyers and stimulate their interest to want to come through our door for a viewing! Only then are we then able to attract the strong level of interest, competition and demand we’d need to achieve the best price!
The very best way to encourage strong buyer engagement, as well as stimulate buyer excitement and interest, is with a fast price. A fast price can attract the strong level of interest, competition and demand that’s needed to push up the price to meet the perfect price!
What is the best way to implement the fast price?

What about the risky price?
According to Rightmove, sellers who choose to list their home at the risky price generally tend to miss their chance to achieve the perfect price, and eventually end up selling for the fast price, or even lower!
Simply put, overpricing a property does not serve any seller whatsoever!

In the next section, I go over what I personally believe is the single most important aspect that any seller would need to understand, as it significantly impacts the value and price of a property - that is, the time value of our home once it enters the market.
