Make coffee, bake bread or cookies. The aroma is inviting. Staging is huge. No personal pictures of family etc. We also printed out a brochure about what it is we loved about living there. The great things about the house...great neighbours, things in the area etc. It just adds a little wishful touch for the new buyer. We also did a pre inspection, so anything wrong with the home is stated there for them to see. It makes them trust you more. Maybe a change in realtor, taking it off for a bit, and coming back as a new listing will help. I wish you the best of luck. I know how hard it can be, been there done that. And even though its hard to believe right now, the right buyer will come along. And by the way, people get a little wary when a house has been on the market too long. They think...hmmmmmm....there must be something wrong with it, even when there isn't. So that might be the only problem.

I have pretty much staged it myself (kind of my thing). I have de-cluttered, got rid of stuff, packed up personal photos, re-arranged furniture, etc. Guess it will sell when the stars align properly.

We didn't make any money on it, so maybe that was part of it. I don't know...is the price competitive for homes like it? Have you tried staging the house? I know there are services you can hire for that, maybe it's worth a try...Jennifer Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04685253944514672324noreply@blogger.com
