Sometimes, the hardest part about selling a home is doing everything you can—and still seeing no results. That’s exactly where Lee was when he reached out to us.

Trying to Sell on His Own—and Getting Nowhere

Lee had been trying to sell his home by himself for months. He listed it online, hoped for calls, and waited for buyers to come through. But nothing happened. No showings. No offers. Just silence—and growing frustration.

He had priced his home higher than nearby listings, thinking it would give him room to negotiate. It’s a common mistake. But today’s buyers are smart. When a home is priced too high, they don’t try to talk you down—they move on to the next one.

Eventually, Lee realized he needed help.

Spotting the Real Problem—and Changing Course

When we reviewed Lee’s listing, the issue was clear right away: pricing. His home was sitting well above comparable properties, and it wasn’t even making it onto buyers’ radar.

We recommended a price adjustment of $100,000 to get competitive with the local market. It was a big shift, and understandably, Lee hesitated. But we walked him through the data, explained buyer behavior, and showed him how staying overpriced could actually lead to losing money in the long run.

What gave Lee the confidence to move forward wasn’t just the strategy—it was our promise. We let him know, if his home doesn’t sell, we will buy it. That gave him real peace of mind.

The Results? A Bidding War in 5 Days

Once we launched the right marketing plan, everything changed. We handled the photos, online promotion, agent outreach, and more. And the response was immediate.

In just five days, Lee’s home had 101 showings. It received 25 offers. And it sold for $55,000 over the asking price.

After months of nothing, Lee was now able to choose from a stack of strong offers—and walk away with a better outcome than he thought possible.

Don’t Let Overpricing Cost You Time and Money

Lee’s story is a reminder that trying to sell on your own—or without the right guidance—can lead to stress, delays, and lost opportunities. But with the right pricing, marketing, and support, it doesn’t have to be that way.
