Selling Price vs Original Listings Price The Selling Price vs Original Listing Price reveals the average amount that Sellers are agreeing to come down from their original list price .

The February 2017 Selling Price vs Original List Price of 95.2 % was up from 93.5 % last month and up from 93.1 % in February of last year .
