Has your Portland area home been sitting on the market for 2-3 weeks, maybe even longer than the average? Before you panic, slash the price, or consider switching agents, take a moment to breathe.
While it's true that homes typically get the highest offers within the first few weeks, that's not always the case. Sometimes, being in a low-demand neighborhood or having a home with unique features means a smaller pool of potential buyers, which can naturally extend your market time.
Additionally, if your home has standout attributes that justify a higher price, you might just need to wait for the right buyer who sees the value—fewer buyers, yes, but potentially a better offer in the end.
In these situations, patience isn't just a virtue; it might just bring you a more rewarding and profitable sale.
