Best value beats “lowest price”

Warren Buffett said it best: “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.”
In Rocky Bayou, value = location + condition + price working together. When these align, buyers act fast. When they don’t, days on market grow.

Why this matters here

  • Many buyers use VA loans and move on a PCS timelineflexmls Web2

  • Clear condition and honest prep reduce surprises

  • Fair pricing against real comps wins attention

Where AI helps, and where judgment still wins

Good uses for AI: pull comps fast, manage deadlines, draft first-pass descriptions.
Still needs a pro: condition calls, commute positioning for Eglin, pricing and negotiation for PCS deadlines.
We use AI to move faster. We use experience to make better calls.
