old house sat for right at a year, and then we got 2 offers in the same week. Sometimes it's a crapshoot. It had character and looked nice, but certainly wasn't 2024 modern and had a very small kitchen. This deterred a lot of people that attended showings. I mean, inexpensive cookie cutter houses are being built with large open concept kitchens these days. It's a hard sell to sell an older home with a small one. Our only advantage was location. Our new house sat since like 2016 because it is split level and laid out very bizarre (perfect for us). Previous homeowners were trying to list it at the price of similar sized homes in the neighborhood, but this layout wouldn't work for 90% of people. Especially with kids. While the realtor should certainly do an open house or two, I think homes that don't sell quickly are seldom the realtor's fault.
Mine is a custom build, open floor concept, modern farm, pool, hot tub, generator, outdoor kitchen, and a big arse garage on almost an acre.
Had an offer 2nd day on the market but it was low. Had several offers a good bit below ask but I wouldn’t take them. Finally went under contract but the deal feel through due to financing but went under contract again a week later.
Lot of activity on the house it’s just not something everyone would want.
