Some Seller's agents do just as the subject line suggests. tell a little white lie about how much your home is worth.
Agents who overestimate your house's selling price, with no real research or comparables to back their price up with are hoping you'll choose them over other agents who will price it more realistically.
We call that "buying your listing," and it guarantees your house will sit on the market for a very long time.
Beware of them!!
