Agents were selected to participate in the survey using the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/find-real-estate-agents\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">same performance data<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that HomeLight uses to identify top real estate agents for millions of homebuyers and sellers nationwide.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A slow-selling home can reveal where buyer interest is breaking down. Some listings attract showings but no offers, while others struggle to get buyers through the front door. In both cases, top-rated real estate agents nationwide say the response often starts with reevaluating the home\u2019s asking price.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plenty of showings but no offers often means the price is too high<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The survey found that when potential buyers are touring a property but not making offers, 47% of agents say the asking price is likely set too high.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Condition is the next most common explanation at 19%, followed by buyers finding higher value in competing homes at 13%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When showings are not requested and inquiries are in short supply, 58% of agents say reducing the asking price is the first change they would recommend. Perhaps surprisingly, far fewer agents say they would start by addressing condition issues (13%) or by changing the listing photos, description, or the marketing strategy (8%).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"775\" height=\"503\" src=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-775x503.jpg\" class=\"attachment-content size-content\" alt=\"Infographic featuring home showing survey data\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-775x503.jpg 775w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-768x499.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-64x42.jpg 64w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-128x83.jpg 128w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-192x125.jpg 192w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-432x280.jpg 432w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-500x325.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-800x519.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-100x65.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-200x130.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-400x260.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing-600x389.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/How-is-the-listing-performing.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf buyers aren\u2019t showing up, you need to revisit price, presentation, or condition,\u201d writes <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/agents\/alex-miranda-fl-03203583\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alex Miranda<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a top Miami, Florida agent with nearly 20 years of experience. \u201cIf they\u2019re showing up but not writing offers, the gap is usually between the value they expected and what they experienced.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He adds, \u201cThe biggest mistake is waiting too long to respond.
