I live in the 29229 area and have traveled these roads for 20+ YEARS. Most likely you are competing with builders. This area is saturated with new tract housing and is still growing. I'd suggest speaking to a Realtor that is living in the area. You can get advice from anyone you want and have different theories on why your house isn't selling. If you ask me, your competition has the upper-hand in the market. If you are trying to "flip" or make a large profit on your house I think you bought in the wrong area or paid too much. Most likely your Realtor is doing his/her job if their office is in the the area. Ask your Realtor who your competition is, then plan your strategy. What sets your house apart from others being built? How's your neighborhood sales and DOM? Visit our website for some free tips. By the way, the market here is not so bad. - Mon Jun 30 2008, 20:02
