I just sold my place after it being on the market for 28 days. I can honestly tell you that if its priced correctly in your area, people will come and see it. We had on average 4 showings a week, which I thought was extremely good. We had 3 open house on saturdays, which brought in good traffic as well. The only offer we got and the one we took, was a very quick possesion, and because of that, we only took $7000 less then our asking price. Trying to find a place to move in a month was more difficult, considering we wanted to get into a spec home. But we found what we wanted and needed, and for probbably $75000 less then it was a year ago at this time. It's not all doom and gloom, and it is a buyers market.
