‘Price cutting hurts all homes’

Editor’s note: The following is a comment on the Oct. 6 Inman News story, "Coldwell Banker promotes price reductions."

"This is more like a race to the bottom … price cutting just gets more price cutting. This sounds more like a revenue hunt on the part of Coldwell Banker. While many homes are indeed overpriced, price cutting hurts all other homes on the market.

"While many believe we have just a supply problem, we may also have a ‘demand’ problem. It is now more difficult for borrowers, especially with "jumbo" financing needs or for those that need larger down payments.

"The way out of this problem is much more complex than just a 10 percent off fire sale." —Vince Ciroli
