Find out what your home is worth, by asking other realtors what they think. You may have expressed urgency to the realtor and that is why they suggested the price. If you have time, list it for what you need from it. Unless home values have dropped in the area, I would be surprised if the lenders would lend more than the appraised value, but I have seen it happen. So, if you can, take your time, shop around for a more agressive realtor, promote your property your self in addition to the realtor. You still have to pay one if they are working with you, but it seems that the object is to sell the home.
