Why Your Home Might Not be Selling | NWA Real Estate

February 2, 2018 By Burnett Real Estate Team Leave a Comment

If your home has been on the market for a period that feels like an eternity, you are probably all stressed up trying to figure out why you haven’t received any offers. Luckily, the majority of the critical causes of a stagnant sale in Bentonville, Arkansas are fixable. Here are some of the reasons why your home may be languishing on the market and possible ways of fixing the situation.

The Listing Price Could Be Too High

The appropriate price for your home should be dependent on the competitive landscape in your locality. Hiring an NWA real estate agent will come in handy in establishing whether your home is overpriced as compared to the other nearby homes having similar features and square footage. If your home is consistently the most highly priced house on the Bentonville, Arkansas market without objective justifications, you should lower the price for enhanced competitiveness.

Poor Condition of your Home

Most buyers prefer a move-in ready home, and the majority of them shy away from a house presenting an immediate mountain of responsibility. While it might be disheartening to execute renovations that you won’t be around to enjoy, issues with your walls, roof, paintwork, and windows can significantly deter potential home buyers. You need to view these renovations as an ideal investment to speedily sell your home in Bentonville, Arkansas, and more importantly, at the appropriate price.

Skimping on your Home’s Aesthetic Appearance

Humans are visual creatures who get attracted to aesthetics. Home buyers in Bentonville, Arkansas are more likely to dismiss your property if the pictures you posted are unflattering. You should, therefore, get your real estate agent to take photos of your house during the day, especially when the sky is clear for maximum natural light. Before the date of the photo shoot, take pictures of your house using your phone every hour to know how each area casts shadows and receives light throughout the day. Such information will help your agent determine how best to stage the areas that receive insufficient sunlight, including where to use artificial light and high-resolution camera. This will go a long way in exhibiting the best possible image of your home and improve its visual appeal to attract more potential buyers.

A Wrong Marketing Strategy

Lack of adequate marketing strategies when selling your home in Bentonville, Arkansas could be the reason you are getting numerous walk through appointments. With the help of your real estate agent, you need to review the MLS listing and ensure that it contains the relevant details without exaggeration and fluff. If you are only using the MLS listing as the only marketing strategy, you should probably expand into advertising among other extensive marketing tools.
