How much should I reduce my price to trigger platform alerts?

Price reductions must cross a search bracket threshold to generate buyer alerts and algorithmic re-ranking. On StreetEasy and Zillow, this typically means crossing a round number - $2M to $1.95M, for example. A $10,000 reduction on a $2M listing does nothing because it stays in the same search bracket. Plan reductions strategically to land just below the next major threshold where buyer search volume concentrates.
