Jack Tuck | What to do when your home isnt selling!

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room: your property has been sitting on the market longer than expected and no one seems to be giving you straight answers. In this blog, we tackle what some agents tiptoe around and offer candid, actionable advice to help get things moving.

When Your Property Won’t Sell: What Agents Might Not Tell You (But Should)

Enhance Property Presentation 🌿

Yes, buyers do judge a book by its cover and your property is no exception.

That tired hallway paint? The wild front garden? These may be silently screaming “don’t buy me.”

Simple updates like a fresh coat of paint or garden TLC can do more than you'd expect. It’s not just aesthetics, it’s psychology.

Professional Photography 📸

We hate to say it, but blurry iPhone photos aren’t doing you any favours.

In an era where buyers scroll through listings like their on social media, you’ve got milliseconds to impress.

Professional photography doesn’t just capture — IT SELLS.

Rethink Your Marketing Strategy 📢

If your current marketing approach isn’t working, maybe it’s time to accept that it’s… not working.

Many agents default to the same tired tactics. A smarter, more tailored strategy, one that actually targets the right audience could make all the difference.

Actually Listen to Viewer Feedback 🗣️

Yes, it can sting. But feedback from viewings is a goldmine — if you’re willing to hear it.

Buyers aren’t being picky, they’re being honest. Their comments might reveal what your agent or your ego won’t.

Reassess Your Pricing Strategy 💷

This is the bit no one likes to hear.

You might love your home but sentiment doesn’t sell.

If all else has been addressed and offers are still non-existent, your price might be the real problem.

Don’t slash it recklessly, but do re-evaluate with the help of a seasoned professional not just someone who wants to win your listing.

Final Thoughts

Selling a home shouldn’t feel like a waiting game. If your property has stalled, something isn’t working and pretending otherwise won’t change that. With the right presentation, pricing, and marketing, any property can find its perfect match.

We hope this no-nonsense guide has been helpful and maybe a little eye-opening. 🏡✨
