Why Isn't My Residence Selling?

Are you a property seller with a residence that won't sell? Photo of 1700 Clarendon Blvd #158 Did you know that in Gaslight Square:

Here are curated reasons residences will sometimes have little activity:
  • Decor — Neutral decor doesn't excite anyone, but flashy decor can distract home buyers.
  • Odor — Many residences have an odor that the owner doesn't even know aware of.
  • Floor plan — Strange or awkward floorplans may also make a home linger, such as older penthouses where you have to walk through a bedroom to get to a second bedroom,.
  • Parking — A difficult driveway or a home without good parking can be slow to sell.
