Question Neighbor selling house at same time

Hi:

We have been doing some upgrades to our house over the last month to put our house on the market at the end of April. Putting in granite counters and tile floors in kitchen and main bathroom - landscaping and such. Houses here have been selling within 8 months so we have a good chance of selling our house at the price we want.

Except, that now the neighbor across the street has decided to put his house on the market at the same time. There are pros and cons to both houses, but they are about the same size with the same number of bdrms and baths.

There is already one house around the corner for sale. It worries me that our two houses will be on the market at the same time. I don't want to lower my price based soley on the fact that there is inventory right across the street.

Do you think that this situation could negate the upgrades we are doing? As far as I know the only upgrades they have done/are doing is a new water heater. We can't afford that.
