Depends on whether the tide is in or out.

Let's say you list your home for $200,000. Similar new homes are selling for about $200,000. The tide is in, all things equal you'll probably get close to your listed price. If you list your house for $240,00, you'll probably get still sell it at $200,000 or a little less because that's what the market will bear.

Suddenly TV new homes have a reduction in price to $185,000. The tide is out and so is your expectation of getting your list price of $200,000.

Housing prices are very localized and whether by design or not TV sales department sets the prices for new and resale homes in TV. (IMHO)
