8. Hitting The Market<br />
Okay, it’s go time! The big day! Hopefully we’ll see good activity right<br />
away.<br />
Typically, we’ll see the most activity within the first two weeks of hitting<br />
the market. The most serious buyers in your price range will reach out<br />
within the first few hours or days of being listed.<br />
If there isn’t as much anticipated activity or any offers on the table, don’t<br />
worry. We’ll give it a couple of weeks and then we’ll assess.<br />
What I’m looking at during that period:<br />
How many showings were there?<br />
Did any of the buyers make offers? If not, why? What type of<br />
feedback was received from the buyers?<br />
Were there few to no showings at all? Is that due to a slow market, or<br />
is it something to do with the house or it’s price?<br />
Let’s hope for strong interest and a good number of showings. If not, it is<br />
not time to get discouraged. Not all homes sell in the first couple of<br />
weeks.<br />
