I am currently up against a roadblock with one of my listings. This particular home is a beautful former tavern ell in the historic village district of New Gloucester, Maine. The house is in good condition physically and was built in 1797 so it's safe to say it's seen a few owners. The price is much lower than any similar properties on the market but I just can't seem to generate any interest whatsoever. The original list date was back in Novemeber, at a price of $279,900. We had some interest at that point, but nothing that materialized into an offer. I really feel that the market for this home is with out of state buyers, but am not really sure what to do to market to them. I've had zero luck with print advertising and have used many online advertising venues with similar results. I'm actually strongly considering ebay, but for $150 I'm not really sure it's worth it. Does anyone have any experience marketing historic homes inexpensively or have any additional ideas I could try?
