Your Home Isn’t Selling? Change It Up a Bit.

At Brown McMillen Real Estate, LLC, we understand how discouraging it can be when your home sits on the market longer than expected. You’ve cleaned, staged, and hoped for the best—but the offers just aren’t coming in. If that sounds familiar, don’t worry—you’re not alone, and more importantly, you're not out of options.

The good news? Sometimes all it takes is a fresh perspective and a few strategic changes to turn things around.

1. Revisit the Price

Let’s be honest—price matters. The market is constantly shifting, and if your home is priced even slightly above comparable listings, it can easily be overlooked. A competitive price isn’t about undervaluing your home; it’s about attracting serious buyers who are comparing your listing to many others. If you haven’t had much activity, it might be time to reassess with your agent.

2. Refresh the Marketing Strategy

Online visibility is everything. If your listing photos are outdated, poorly lit, or not highlighting your home’s best features, it’s time for a photo refresh. Professional photos (and sometimes even video tours or drone footage) can make all the difference. At our office, we utilize top-tier marketing tools and platforms to ensure your home shines online—and reaches the right buyers.

3. Enhance Curb Appeal

First impressions matter. A buyer’s excitement begins the moment they pull up to the curb. A little landscaping, fresh mulch, a pop of color on the front door, or updated house numbers can dramatically change a buyer’s perception before they even step inside.

4. Stage with Purpose

Staging doesn’t always mean a complete makeover. Sometimes it's as simple as rearranging furniture to create better flow, depersonalizing the space, or adding neutral, modern décor to make rooms feel brighter and more inviting. Buyers need to picture themselves living there, and staging helps make that possible.

5. Timing Is Everything

Are you listing during a slower season or a holiday weekend? Timing can affect buyer traffic. Your real estate agent can help assess market conditions and recommend when a price change, re-listing, or enhanced promotion might make the biggest splash.

6. Listen to the Feedback

If your home has had showings but no offers, feedback from potential buyers can be a goldmine. Are they consistently mentioning the same concerns—like an outdated kitchen or unusual layout? Addressing those pain points (or adjusting price accordingly) can shift the needle.
