I definitely feel your pain, and know all the things I need to do, it is just the motivation to do it.  Thanks for posting this question, it comes at the right time.  I love all of the affirmations of what my answers were going to be, but they are already here.  We both just need to get to it now!

Welcome to my world, Ginger Harper! It's an ongoing challenge these last 3 years and I see no letting up!

I'm with the others:

  • Reach out to your sphere
  • Farm
  • When you list something, Coming soon, Just listed, Under Contract and JUST SOLD postcards must go out

Good luck, Ginger!

You received some good ideas here. Try marketing your solds to those neighborhoods via postcards, as well.

Once a listing sells, send Just Sold postcards to every homeowner in the area. That usually works for me.
