If your home has been sitting, here is an honest look at why: overpricing is the number one reason, followed by poor photography, limited marketing beyond the MLS, deferred maintenance visible at showings, awkward staging or clutter, and limited showing availability. The fix: price it right, invest in professional photos, expand your marketing, and make your home accessible for showings.
