This problem might arise if your agent fails to reach appropriate buyers or the marketing efforts are not well targeted. Even worse you feel that your agent has given up and is concentrating on newer listings.

What can you do! 

Take your house off the market for now, to stop it going stale. When a property remains on the market for an extended period, potential buyers may become wary and wonder if something is wrong with it.

Let us gather feedback. Feedback is key for moving a house sale forward. A good agent will not just give you the positives they will also give you the negatives. Having an open and honest relationship with your agent makes this process easier. Try to look at your property from the point of view of the prospective buyer, everyone wants a home they can be proud of, first impressions are so important. Buyers make up their minds about a house within minutes.

According to the 2019 Homeowners survey, more than 68% of homeowners say kerb appeal was important to their choice of home. The key factors were having sound windows, a maintained roof, and a neat front garden and driveway.

The lack of interest in your property may stem from potential buyers finding it challenging to see past the current décor or signs of wear and tear. Alternatively, if the property is vacant some buyers may have difficulty envisioning its potential due to the presence of large, empty spaces.

The right agent will not just place your home on selling platforms and wait for the telephone to ring. At Private Luxury Property we look at every property as an individual project.

We know that most people start their property search on-line so the first glimpse they’ll get of your home will be from the photographs, its very easy for potential buyers to pass over pictures which look unattractive, don’t have the “wow” factor or give a poor representation of the property.

Incorrect Pricing. 

At Private Luxury Property, we use our experience and resources to provide an honest property valuation. If your asking price is too high or too low, your property may attract little buyer interest on the open market. We understand that adjusting your sale price can be upsetting. A price adjustment should never be the first thing that an agent discusses with you. As mentioned before, having an honest professional relationship between client and agent makes dialogue easier.

Experience is key, if you are struggling to sell your property and want one or our experienced team to take a look and advise you on ways to move forward, we would be delighted to speak with you.
