Stay calm, but do not stay passive. If a home has been on the market for over 30 days with no offers, that is usually a sign to step back and look at the facts: price, condition, presentation, access, and overall buyer response in the current market. In this market, buyers are more payment-conscious than they were a few years ago. That means even a solid home can sit if it is priced just a little too high for the condition, location, or competition.
