My house has been on the market for over a year with no offers to date. A friend suggested using online classifieds such as
Gumtree Australia, Craigslist, Ebay etc.
Do you think it would work?|||i have used craigslist with great results...
but your house may be too low / high priced... you need to find what comparable houses are selling for in your local area and price accordingly...
sometimes Realtors will not push your property at all they use iy as a listing stock... esp sometimes if its priced too low they will advertise your property and they get a lot of hits because of it but alway switch and bate..."we have a nicer listing that may work better for you"... if its too high priced they will make no effort because they know no one will buy it anyway...|||It can't hurt. I am a broker and advertise all of my listings on craigslist with fairly good results.
However, if your home has been on the market for 12 months (I am assuming by "on the market" you mean that it is multiple listed by a broker) with no offers, your problem isn't how it is advertised, it is your price. A year is certainly long enough to know how the public is responding to your asking price, and in your case the price is obviously too high.
By all means, have your broker put it on craigslist, your pennysaver, and so forth, but you've got to lower that price.|||I've seen on the news someone sold his house in 2 weeks by making a short tour of the house and posted it on youtube.
You should try it.
