When Orchard is actually right

The $64,700 spread assumes the seller can coordinate two vendors. Orchard's real value is to sellers who don't want to — or can't. Two-time movers handling a relocation on a short window, dual-career households without time to project-manage a sale, and sellers who've never sold before often describe Orchard's process as worth the premium. The product isn't priced wrong; it's priced to absorb complexity.
