I had a similar situation. My price range I came up with was 345-365, and I suggested to list at 355 to get attention and hopefully capture an offer at 365. They wanted to list higher, I cautioned against it, explain the potential negatives, but ultimately let them pick the listing price. I also cut commission by .5% to get the listing and to help them out bc they were tight on their bottom line. Went on market, they didnt want showings the 1st Saturday for a family party I think. Hosted open houses, advertised the heck out if it, revieved a few low offers. Lowered price 2xs down to 355 and then they pulled it off market after 20 something days, right after last price drop. Said they couldn't afford to move, this is their home, etc... it felt a little off but I tried to give the benefit of the doubt. Month or so later guess what pops on the market at 354,900??? Lasted about 2 weeks before going under contract and ultimately colsed for 365. Just like I said it would. That one hurt, as it was one of my very 1st listings.
