House for sale 700 plus days, what do buyers think?
What goes into your mind when you see that a house has been on the market for a long time? Something is wrong, right? Absolutely. If everything was just dandy, it would have sold within a reasonable time period, say 90 days, right?
So, if you are a buyer, and see it's been on the market awhile, what are you thinking?
For me, I'm thinking it's over priced, next I'm thinking the buyer, if any, canceled because they did not qualify for the mortgage, then I'm thinking if none of the above, the agent did not market properly.
For the public, and that's more important then what any agent thinks, they must be asking themselves, "if it takes over 700 days to sell a house, their must be something wrong with it, and when I'm going to sell how long will it take me"?
Overpricing is a down market, not a good idea.
