waiting . . .

So how long is “normal” in selling one’s home? It’s been a couple of weeks and no one has asked to view our property in person yet.

When we sold the Craftsman Tudor Revival bungalow we raised our family in, we put our own sign in the yard — and we had a buyer in about a week. The 1920 apartment building we renovated was on the market only 6 days before being sold.

I realize that both of these previous experiences were unusual, but we really thought we’d have some activity by now. Our realtor says there’s been daily “hits” on the online sites and one interested caller in particular, but no showings yet. But it’s currently a “buyer’s market” in this part of Texas.

With our two previous experiences, I guess we’re just impatient.
