Alex and I periodically receive calls from sellers whose houses have not sold, seeking a second opinion. We identify the top three significant mistakes that can lead to a stagnant market presence. Firstly, improper pricing can dissuade buyers from even considering a showing. An accurate valuation is absolutely crucial. If you cannot get feet in the door, you cannot get offers. It is a numbers game. Secondly, neglecting preparation and staging can negatively impact your home's appeal, so it is essential to invest in repairs, decluttering, and enhancing the overall aesthetic experience. Lastly, insufficient marketing efforts can limit exposure, so it is important to utilize professional photography, video tours, targeted online ads, and an agent with a social media presence. Merely listing the property as active on the MLS is insufficient; it is vital that every agent and potential buyer has heard about your property. By avoiding these missteps, you can greatly increase your chances of a successful and profitable sale.

As of Friday, May 12, 2023, the current average interest rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage is 6.9%
