6 Reasons Houses Don't Sell



  • Why do some houses sell and others don’t? There’s no ultimate answer to this question, but Tribune Media Services columnist Ilyce Glink has a theory. Here are her six top reasons properties linger on the market:

Lousy pictures on the Web.
Priced too high for the neighborhood.
Blah interior; ho-hum landscaping.
Little online marketing and hard-to-find MLS listings.
Low commissions. Practitioners make sure their customers see properties that offer a payoff.
Miserable maintenance, including ceiling stains, leaky faucets, and ancient furnaces.
