He is 6&#8217;5&#8221;, with a large, slow smile that seems to bespeak an unused capacity for terrific violence, and he is faultlessly congenial. The best way to summarize our friendship is to say that he taught me to shotgun a beer for the first time at the age of 34. I wasn&#8217;t very good at it.<br \/>\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/RealMen-orMaybeNot.png\" alt=\"RealMen-orMaybeNot.png\" height=\"300\" width=\"400\" \/><br \/>\nWorking together at Plumtree, we once took an elevator to the penthouse floor of a massive bank&#8217;s headquarters to ask for a $4 million deal. We rode in silence, hands in our pockets for the first 40 floors. When the elevator was about to ding, I opened my mouth to say, &#8220;I hate asking for money.&#8221; Before I could, Matt said, &#8220;Let&#8217;s make it $5 million.&#8221;<br \/>\nIt turned out to be the largest deal in Plumtree&#8217;s history, triumphantly negotiated by the bank back to $4 million, and it helped Matt buy the house that he just sold through Redfin. While he was still haggling last week over the cost of roof repairs, we went to lunch, and Matt began speculating on the list price most likely to result in the highest offer. It is the kind of conversation that makes me wonder if my friend is from another planet.<br \/>\n&#8220;Does a price that ends in -000, like $490,000 seem casual? Is $499,999 too blue-light special?&#8221; I stared into my salad. Little did I know that Redfin&#8217;s mad scientist, Mose Andre, was working on that very problem, crunching statistics on the data-set we pulled to calculate the <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/2007\/02\/redfin_advantage.html\">Redfin Advantage<\/a>.<br \/>\nTo do the analysis, Mose took all the houses that sold in King County, Washington last year and grouped them by the last three digits of their list price. For example, one group would consist of all the houses whose list price ended with &#8220;-500,&#8221; like $499,500, $387,500, $831,500, and $1,230,500. The four most popular endings for list prices of houses in 2006 were &#8220;-000,&#8221; &#8220;-500,&#8221; &#8220;-900,&#8221; and &#8220;-950.&#8221; Less than 7% of properties were listed at prices that did not end in those four numbers.<br \/>\nThen we threw out new construction, which tends to sell at list price even if other incentives are involved; we also threw out some records where we couldn&#8217;t easily tell if it was new construction or not.<br \/>\nAnd then for each group we calculated the ratio of list price to final price. And it turns out that certain list prices did in fact tend to result in a higher premium over the list price.<br \/>\nThe ending that resulted in the highest final price as compared to list turned out to be &#8220;-500,&#8221; as in $499,500 or $530,500. And the difference was significant: listing  for $500 less than an -000 ending seemed to result in a final price that was $3,000 more.<br \/>\nMaybe rounding a list price to a nice, even &#8220;-000&#8221; is like putting a big &#8220;negotiate me&#8221; sticker on a house&#8217;s back. Or, as Matt speculated, &#8220;A -500 ending sounds like you really thought about it, but it&#8217;s not a nickel-and-diming gimmick like -999.&#8221;<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\">\n<tr>\n<th>Price Ending<\/th>\n<th>Price Examples<\/th>\n<th># in Sample<\/th>\n<th>% of List<\/th>\n<th>$ Over -000 Price<\/th>\n<th>Days on Market<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ending in -000<\/td>\n<td>$600,000; $589,000<\/td>\n<td>11,356<\/td>\n<td>99.86%<\/td>\n<td>$0 (baseline)<\/td>\n<td>70.25<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ending in -500<\/td>\n<td>$600,500; $589,500<\/td>\n<td>1,583<\/td>\n<td>100.44%<\/td>\n<td>$3,501<\/td>\n<td>69.72<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ending in -900<\/td>\n<td>$600,900; $589,900<\/td>\n<td>1,547<\/td>\n<td>100.20%<\/td>\n<td>$2,009<\/td>\n<td>70.43<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ending in -950<\/td>\n<td>$600,950; $589,950<\/td>\n<td>8,296<\/td>\n<td>100.30%<\/td>\n<td>$2,635<\/td>\n<td>72.44<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>All other prices<\/td>\n<td>$600,999; $589,312<\/td>\n<td>1,612<\/td>\n<td>100.13%<\/td>\n<td>$1,635<\/td>\n<td>102.11<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>The column labeled &#8220;$ Over -000 Price&#8221; compares the final\/list ratio for each ending using the -000 final\/list ratio as a baseline since it was the lowest; we came up with a dollar difference by using a hypothetical final price of $600,000. The data for condos is also interesting, although there was only one price ending besides -000 that was popular enough to report on, -950.
