Here are a few reasons detacheds in Oakton, Virginia will sometimes have no offers:
  • Unreasonable price — The toughest pill to swallow, but sometimes this is the problem.
  • Floor plan — Strange or awkward floorplans may also make a home linger, such as older residences where you have to walk through a bedroom to get to a second bedroom,.
  • Neighbors — Are your neighbors making it difficult to sell?
  • Photos — If your listing has yet to sell, you may want to revisit the photos you’re using to present it on the MLS.
These are problems we’ve seen before and the challenges we know how to overcome. Are you reflecting on the thought of selling your property in Oakton? If so, it's wise to investigate what places have sold for in the local area. Those homes can give a property seller an idea of the list price for your 5-bedroom Colonial-style home.
