What the data is telling us

On June 2 we were at 33 days against a 59-day market average — comfortably ahead. A month later, we're at 62 days and have crossed to the wrong side of that line. Meanwhile:

  • Interest is real. 640 views, 42 saves, and a buyer who called this home "a contender." People like this house.
  • Conversion is stalled. Four showings and zero offers means buyers are doing the math and choosing to wait — or choosing something else.
  • The clock is now working against us. The peak summer buyer window in the foothills runs through August. Every week at this price spends that window without converting it.

The Comp Set · What Buyers See

No. 03

Recent 80470 sales and the active competition a buyer touring Myrna is also touring. Pulled from REcolorado-syndicated data July 2 — I'll re-verify against Matrix before we present to any buyer's agent.

The headline: a 3 bed / 2 bath in 80470 with 370 more square feet just closed at $674,400 — four hundred dollars under our list price. Buyers comparing us against that sale, and against active 3/2s at $650K and $599K, are being told by the market that $675K is a stretch.

The Price Strategy · My Recommendation

No. 04

You guys have done everything right — the home is prepped, the media is beautiful, and the exposure is full. What we can't control is what sold around us. Here's what I think our next steps should be: a price adjustment of no less than 2%, with three ways to size it.

The Floor · Minimum Move
$661,500
−2.0% · $13,500
The smallest adjustment the market will actually notice. Triggers a price-change alert to every buyer who saved us (42 on Zillow alone) and signals we're listening. Anything less than 2% reads as noise and spends credibility without buying attention.
The Reset · If Speed Wins
$649,900
−3.7% · $25,100
Puts us inside every search capped at $650K — a bracket we're currently invisible to — and undercuts the Broken Arrow competitor. If a fast, clean sale is priority one, this is the move that generates offers fastest.

Why I'm asking you to move at least 2%

I completely understand the instinct to hold — you've invested real money in this home and the improvements are exceptional. The kitchen, the windows, the deck, the roof: buyers see all of it, and the feedback proves they love it. This isn't about the home's worth. It's about what three specific facts are doing to us right now.

First, the market set a benchmark. A larger 3/2 closed at $674,400 in May. As long as we sit at $675K, every buyer's agent runs that comparison and we lose it.

Second, our serious buyer told us the gap. The Redfin clients called Myrna a contender, then listed the updates and the retaining wall as what stood between them and an offer. A meaningful reduction closes that gap; holding firm asks them to close it themselves. They didn't.

Third, timing favors moving now. We just crossed the area's average days on market, and in my experience the first reduction is the one that gets to choose its own terms — wait too long and the market starts choosing for us. Moving now, at the start of July while summer buyers are still active, keeps you in control.

My recommendation is $659,000, effective this week. We've got this — let's talk through it together.

Net-sheet note: at $659,000, the $16,000 adjustment is roughly 2.4% of gross — before we let it feel bigger than it is, remember it's less than what carrying costs, price-drift, and a stale-listing restart would cost us if we're having this same conversation in September instead. I'll bring an updated net sheet for all three scenarios to our call.
