Many buyers look to see what's out there is Friday, so they can look on the weekend, so I would say Thursday is the best day to drop the price.

I would say on early Monday morning because many agents do a hot sheet on Monday to see what changes have occured with the inventory over the weekend.

I would not delay a price reduction for any special day. That is a factor that deserves immediate action.

Since we work everyday and everything is internet driven I don't think it really matters. If I had to pick I would say on a Thursday so people could find it by the weekend when they are free

Good morning Shanna. I guess would be at the end of the week, so new showings can happen over the weekend.

It's best to lower the price on any day that end with a "Y" once you and the seller both feel its right to do so. I won't think about a price reduction until after 21 days of little to no activity on a listing because NAR research shows that 21 days is enough time to attract all buyers already looking in a particular neighborhood.

Homes that are priced too high won't sell. Anything you can do to fix that should be done as quickly as possible.
