Forget the Headlines: How to Sell for Top Dollar in Any Market | Episode 48

Prices up, days on market longer, buyers bolder — what it really means for sellers. In this episode of Talking Realty, Glen Whitten breaks down Ohio’s shifting housing market and why it doesn’t matter as much as you think. With over 2,500 homes sold, Glen explains how the rules of selling never change, even when prices, days on market, and inventory do. You’ll learn exactly how to:

  • Price your home to spark a bidding war
  • Eliminate showing friction that turns buyers away
  • Respond to silence or low offers with smart counter moves
  • Leverage today’s market to your advantage, no matter what the headlines say

Plus, Glen shares free tools, checklists, and strategies from the Ultimate Home Selling Toolkit at www.ohiomlsflatfee.com/toolkit/ to help you sell smarter.
