Price Drop or Agent Swap?

What to Do if Your Home Isn’t Selling or forever being reduced?

If your dreams of a speedy property sale have hit the skids, you have two options.

You can either drop the asking price or ditch your agent. So which option is right for you?

Drop the price if:

• Lots of buyers have viewed your property, but there have been no offers.

• Your asking price has raised a lot of eyebrows.

• Something has changed in your local area that has negatively influenced the market, such as a controversial building project getting the go-ahead.

• A buyer withdraws an offer because their lender thinks the property is overvalued and won’t greenlight a mortgage deal.

• You need an urgent sale for personal or work reasons.

Drop your agent if:

• Your home is well presented, but you’ve had little buyer interest.

• The marketing photos and social media strategy are lacklustre.

• They’re slow to return your calls.

• You’re underwhelmed by their people skills and drive.

But wait, there’s one more important thing…

While a modest reduction might be justified in some circumstances, if a drastic price drop is required, you’re entitled to ask how your agent got it wrong in the first place (and are they the person to turn things round now).

In some cases, a seller might need to drop their price and their agent to get their sale moving again.
