I have added new pictures to the multiple listing, reworded the verbiage, and last night we planted St. Joseph. The house is clean..top to bottom..we painted the walls and epoxyed the floor in the garage...I've tried baking cookies, open houses, baking cookies FOR open houses..There have been 48 homes in our price range sold within the past 90 days in our area. I'm really not expecting answers...just thanks for letting me vent...and any prayers you can offer will be greatly appreciated!

After 3 months of a lot of activity and all the agents telling me how wonderful my home was but still no contract I offered a $1000 bonus to the agent who brought me an acceptable buyer. the agents came out of the woodwork and I had a sale in 3 days.
my agent said $500 was enough but when you're talking $175,000 for the house $1000 is a drop in the bucket. Try it, you have nothing to lose.
If you are a FSBO, list with The Villages, they're the only game in town. I was a realtor for 25 years up north.
