16 days on the market. Mr. and I are more than a little
discouraged. I've
seen that we've had over 800 electronic views of our house, which is awesome!
I'm just discouraged that no one, not a single person, has taken interest
in it.
Mr. and I both want to sell, and we are
feeling the pressure. Since we have a contingent offer on a house, and we
definitely don't want to lose that house, we feel like we need to do whatever
we have to do to get this house sold.
I think we need to have an open house as
soon as we can. We need to get people in here. Our realtor advised
to go ahead and drop the list price, and see if that helps with getting traffic. I thought having an open house would be the
better idea. I figured if people say
they love the house, but it's too expensive- we can work on that. If
someone comes in and says they hate this or that, it would make me feel a
little better getting some type of feedback, other than what the Showing Time app
says.
I know we've only had the house up for two
weeks, but I thought we'd get a little more traffic. One showing in two
weeks I don't think is something to brag about. We want to sell, but we
also don't want to give he house away.
(We decided to go ahead and reduce the house. I’ll let you know if that gets us anywhere
within the next week.)
Week Two Advice
Take charge- talk to your realtor about
your feelings, what is making you happy/unhappy, excited, discouraged. A good realtor will listen and take your
feelings into consideration.
Try and have an open house as soon as you
can. I think getting people into our
home with out an appointment gives you better leverage on knowing what is great
about your house, or what needs improvement.
Communicate with your spouse. You two have to be on the same page when it
comes to selling. You have to be united
100%. Make sure you confide
