What is the feedback from your showings - that is usually a good indicator of why they didn't choose your home to buy. Just a few thoughts...hope it helps and good luck to you!

I am the realtor (sad, isn't it??)...I have also gotten advice from all of the top selling agents that I know and they too are stymied. As far as staging, the house looks great...neat, clean, nicely decorated. The last feedback I received from a showing the other day was "The wife wants French country..your home is too modern but her husband loves it". The other problem we have is the house is on what is considered a 'main' street but it is set far back off the road on an acre of land...with a circular drive. Our house is priced between 400 and 600 thousand lower than the homes in our sub that aren't on the main road. To go much lower than the price we listed for would be almost impossible...and every agent I have talked to say it is priced great. Our backyard looks like a park...nice trees, private..... Thank you so much for your encouraging words. Someday we will all be in TV and this will be a memory.
