If your home listing expired without a sale, it’s okay to feel a mix of frustration and disappointment. It’s natural to wonder what might have gone wrong. Here are three important questions to consider as you plan your next move.
Did You Limit House Access?
Sometimes, restricting the days and times when potential buyers can tour your house can be a mistake. Being flexible with your schedule—even if it feels a bit stressful—can increase exposure to buyers. ShowingTime suggests being as flexible as possible to accommodate eager buyers, even those traveling from afar. If no one can see your home, how can it sell?
Did You Make Your Home Stand Out?
First impressions matter. Enhancing your home’s exterior appeal by sprucing up the landscaping is crucial. But it doesn’t end there. Inside, decluttering and depersonalizing create an inviting space for buyers to envision themselves living there. Small upgrades like a fresh coat of paint can also work wonders.
Did You Price Your Home Right?
Setting the right price is essential. While aiming for a higher price is tempting, overpricing can deter buyers and delay the sale. Forbes warns that pricing too high can lead to a longer time on the market. Pay attention to feedback from open houses and showings. If many suggest the same thing, consider adjusting the price.
