To find out how long it takes a home to sell in a market realtors can do a market absorption study. That takes the number of homes for sale compared to the number of homes that have sold in your price range and tells you how long it will take for all of the homes on the market to be absorbed.
In a declining market you want to have your home be the next home to sell. Pricing is very important as is market position, that is where you home fits in with the competition. A realtor that really knows the market will be able to help you do this correctly the first time. If you make a market position mistake in pricing your home, it will cost you equity in the end price. You do not want to be that home that follows the market down.
