Our conversation on Marketing That Moves Stale Inventory was packed with practical strategies for keeping listings moving and managing seller expectations.
A few of the biggest takeaways:
- Set expectations early. Have the pricing conversation upfront and establish when adjustments may need to happen.
- Keep sellers informed. Even when the news isn’t ideal, consistent communication helps prevent uncertainty and frustration.
- Refresh with intention. New photos, updated remarks, stronger feature callouts, and a meaningful repositioning can give a stale listing new life.
- Watch the numbers. Showing activity and offers can tell you when the property is still getting traction and when it’s time to reach a new buyer pool.
- Market directly to active agents. Identify buyer’s agents who have recently sold in the area and put the listing directly in front of them.
