• Marketing: Getting listing views online or other media to serious buyers is usually not the issue, it is how it is presented. Well-presented listings will get much more attention than poorly presented listings. Poorly priced and poorly presented listings may stay on the market longer and give the impression to buyers that there may be something wrong with the property. • Contingency: Inability to remove a buyer contingency (property, loan, insurance, etc.) may make a buyer back out of a deal and put a property back on the market. In this case the listing is usually put right back on the market. • Unreasonable Seller: Seller unwilling to negotiate reasonable terms and or price. • Meeting Price Goal: Sometimes home sellers will attempt to sell but if they do not get the price they want, they will take it off the market. Purely a money decision. • Life Circumstances: Sometimes circumstances change, and the sellers no longer can or want to sell their home and take the home off of the market. • Legal or Title Issues: Sometimes a legal or title issues arises to the point that the listing may have to be paused or come off the market. • Location: Sometimes a location makes a home less desirable thus limiting the buyer pool. Sellers should be aware of this and price it accordingly. • Market Shift: A significant market shift can reduce buyer demand and take longer for the home to sell. Some home sellers will take the home off the market and will wait for a more favorable market in which to sell.
