Believe me 6 weeks is no time at all. WE have been trying to sell our house over a 3 YEAR period Not continually, always taken off the market Nov to March. Sold 4 times and fell through due to a break in the chain!! WE have done all the usual stuff, dropped price, redecorated, freshened the garden up etc, etc. You need to speak to the agent on a regular basis for updates. ie. where they have advertised, have you had any interest at all, a copy of all names and addresses of people that have enquired, hits on the internet, all that sort of thing. Do it weekly, they wont forget you that easily if a potential buyer walks in. Be prepared for "the browsers" though.
What price bracket do you fall under? It's interesting that, by us, the lower priced houses (not really first time buyers) �185,000+ and the higher priced houses �500,000+ are selling a lot quicker than the mid priced houses �300,000. We are mid price!!
