If you’re looking to stand out in a competitive housing market, you may have considered the idea of listing your home for an unorthodox asking price. While putting your home on the market for $420,069 may seem like a funny joke, it’s important to consider the potential implications before doing so.
When it comes to buying or selling a home, you must consider the practical implications of your decisions. For example, you may need to explain why you chose this price to potential buyers and their agents, which could be an awkward conversation. Additionally, it’s possible that your appraisal could come back at the exact same price, meaning you’d be on the hook for the remaining 69 dollars.
That being said, there are creative ways you can list your home to stand out in the market. For example, you could advertise a grow closet if you live in an area where marijuana is legal. Additionally, if you live in a younger part of town with tech-savvy couples, you may be able to attract more buyers and a higher asking price.
When I bought my first home many years ago, I bid $777,777 and won, so there is definitely precedent for this type of strategy. However, you must also consider how your listing will be perceived by potential buyers. My husband is a realtor, and when I asked his opinion on this, he said he wouldn’t advise it as he didn’t understand the joke of 42069 and his first thought was that you were stoners who smoked in the house.
Ultimately, it’s up to you whether you want to list your home for $420,069. While it could draw attention to your listing, it could also raise some eyebrows. Weigh the pros and cons before making your decision, and if you do decide to go ahead, make sure you’re prepared to explain why you chose this price.
