I was doing a search for expired/withdrawn listings in Gambrills, Crofton and Odenton Maryland today. I could not believe the number of homes that had been withdrawn or expired in the last week. Unfortunately, many of these homeowners were not able to realize a goal of theirs and to move to that new home. I have found that there is a common thread to most of these properties.
The Home appears to be dated
The House has stained walls and/or carpets
The House was overpriced
In todays market, it is critically important to make sure that your house shines above the rest. If you want to sell your home, make sure you have the nicest house compared to the competition and make sure that it is priced correctly. Try and visit your competition to gauge your house vs. theirs. If I take a new listing I always make sure that I visit the other propertied to give feedback to my clients. As consumers you should do the same and be honest with yourself. If you find that your neighbors house came on the market for $10,000 less and has a brand new kitchen, and your kitchen is original then you may want to reconsider.
