Why Your Property Might Not Be Selling

If your home isn’t selling, take the opportunity to refine your approach and highlight its unique appeal. Let’s explore some common reasons why homes sometimes take a bit longer to sell, and how we can make your listing even more attractive to potential buyers:

Struggles with Investment Property. For my client, marketing an investment property with tenants has been a challenge. Every showing brings uncertainty—will there be clutter, dishes in the sink, or laundry scattered around? It’s frustrating when you can’t present your property in the best light. To overcome this, we’re taking the listing off the market until the tenants move out, then we’ll stage it beautifully, create an eye-catching marketing package, and re-list it in the fall. This way, we’ll attract the right buyers who can see the home’s true potential.

Buyer’s Perspective. On the flip side, I’m working with a buyer whose dream home has been on the market for a month because the seller wants too much. Imagine the disappointment when your perfect home feels out of reach because of a price mismatch. The seller could benefit from the same strategy we’re using for my client, but instead they’re going to take a haircut because of their pricing. They missed the golden window by starting too high initially, leading to tough negotiations later.

Finding the Right Price. Starting too high can be a costly mistake. Think about the emotional toll of seeing your home linger unsold, the missed opportunities, and the stress of continuous showings. Listing at a competitive price from the start can create excitement and even spark a bidding war, pushing the price to where you want it to be. If you find yourself stuck, consider re-listing or re-evaluating your approach to align better with the market’s pulse.
