Top 5 Home Selling Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them In this informative video, we discuss the five things that generally deter buyers and make a house stay longer on the market. Overpricing is the first mistake to avoid; your home is only worth what buyers are willing to pay for it. Second, it's not just unpleasant smells like pet odors, mold, or smoke that can turn off a buyer, but also unkempt areas where a pet may have urinated. Also, clutter in your home can cause potential buyers to lose interest.
