I'm not getting any difference. I think that luxury always uses offered vs asking in the lower price ranges.

No difference in my mind ... it is a matter of semantics ... a choice of the use of the word "asking" or "offered". The intention behind the use of any word may vary.

TomAto, tomAHto, Richie! JK
Here is my take on the two...
- 'Asking' sends the buyer a message that the sellers are negotiable.
- 'Offered at' makes the buyer feel fortunate to have the property offered to them at said price.
Or IS it tomAto, tomAHto?!

Yes, a semantical one. Asking implies that the price is not firm and less may be accpetable. Offered implies "this is where the bidding starts." If you dig down further into it, "asking" is a word of weakness. I'm asking you for something, for help, for a handout... or in this case to pay me the list price. Offered is a word of strength. I am telling you what the house will go for. This is the offer, take it or leave it.

Buyers, sellers and agents will know what you mean using either term, I believe.

Such wording conveys a seller willing to engage in the conversation.
For Sale: $650,127 does not convey the same friendliness.
Today, with a tsunami of real estate data and information, buyers tend to ignore the MSRP or understand the first offer is just to get the house off the market and start the DOM penalty.
Seller/Listing agents seem reluctant to protect the owner from such predation.

The asking price in an MLS listing is considered an offer to bid. In some parts of the country that use Market Value Pricing they use a range. So either way, other than an obligtion to pay on the sellers part under certain conditions, Asking or Offered are one in the same.

Does if really matter if we ues either or neither of these. Most people dont see the words any way, they are just scanning for the price.

I would think this is the same thing, just another way to state it.

I tend to use "offered or presented". I feel it is a more polite form of selling. (but then again, I'm Canadian and what do I know? lol)
