Pricing accuracy and pre-listing presentation drive 80% of the outcome. The other 20% is a sharp marketing plan and an agent who understands Collin County buyer behavior. ## The Allen Pricing Reality Allen sellers who price to current 30-day comps and prepare the home professionally are still seeing strong activity in the first 14 days. Sellers who anchor on 2022 peak prices are sitting unsold for 90+ days and ultimately closing below where a sharper initial price would have landed them. ## Presentation: What Allen Buyers Notice The Collin County buyer pool is more relocation-heavy than most DFW submarkets, California, the Northeast, and corporate transferees from the Toyota and JPMorgan campuses. They expect move-in-ready, professionally photographed listings with floor plans, video walkthroughs, and clear school-zone information. ## Timing Allen's strongest selling window remains February through June, driven by the Allen ISD enrollment calendar. Listings hitting in late January through March consistently outperform fall and winter listings on both speed and price. ## Where Sellers Leave Money Three places: pricing high and chasing the market down (every price reduction signals weakness), skipping pre-listing inspection (and getting hammered on negotiated repairs), and choosing an agent on commission alone instead of marketing depth and Allen-specific market knowledge. ## Ready to Talk Allen?
