Today


“When a house is vacant, buyers make low-ball offers, hoping to take advantage of an owner they think is desperate to sell. Furnished, decorated homes strike an emotional chord, and buyers make premium offers.”

—Allen Baron, Coldwell Banker

Vacant Houses Are Hard to Sell


In 2004, Showhomes surveyed over 800 top-producing Realtors at the annual National Association of Realtors Expo. Realtors said in the survey:

• Vacant homes sell for at least 10% less than occupied homes

• Vacant homes take 30-60 days longer to sell
