  It is what every seller dreads, putting their home on the market only to find themselves waiting weeks to months for an acceptable offer.

If your home's listing expired consider these key factors:

  • Ease of Access - Did you make it as easy as possible for buyers to see your home? With unusual work schedules, pets, or kids to consider it can be difficult to accommodate every showing request. But you must remember that buyers are likely facing the same challenges on their side when trying to find time to see homes. So if you and your agent do not team up to do everything possible to make your property easy to show, you may be losing out to other listings not because they are better, but just because buyers were able to see them first. 
  • Price Range - Did you follow professional advice when pricing your home based on market value? Sometimes it can be a good idea to list a little high to leave room for negotiations, and sometimes it can be a big mistake. This all depends on where you are within your price range and what programs may (or may not) be available to help buyers close without requesting seller concessions. 
  • Preparation/Staging - Did you de-personalize and de-clutter the home before listing?

  If you already made your best effort on these factors within your control, it may be time to interview a new agent. Make sure you are receiving the best advice on pricing and strategy. Also, ask the new agents you interview to give constructive feedback on your last MLS listing. The photos and marketing description in MLS feed to countless websites and it must grab the buyer at first sight. A "good enough" listing is not likely to make a buyer's short list of homes to see in person. 

Below are a few of the homes I have successfully closed after other agents failed. Some through strategic repairs or staging, but many just through better marketing.
