Real Estate Mark Daya June 12, 2025
When your home doesn't sell, it can feel like a punch to the gut. You poured time, money, and heart into the process. You made plans, spread the word, and then... crickets. Listing expired. No buyer. You’re left feeling frustrated, maybe even embarrassed, wondering what went wrong. But here’s what most real estate agents won’t tell you:
According to REDX, over 70% of homeowners who re-list with a different agent end up selling their home.
Re-list with the same agent? That number drops to just 50%. That’s like flipping a coin and hoping for the best — and that’s not a strategy. Even more surprising? Only 1 in 3 sellers actually make the switch. Most either give up or repeat the same failed formula. But that doesn’t have to be you.
Same house. New strategy. Better results.
At Sac Platinum Realty, we specialize in turning expired listings into sold listings — and here’s how we do it:
1. It Was Probably Priced Too High
In today’s market, buyers are price-conscious thanks to higher mortgage rates. Even a slightly overpriced home gets skipped — and once your listing goes stale, it’s hard to bring that momentum back. Here’s what to do: We’ll review recent sales, buyer feedback, and market trends to price your home strategically. Listing at or just below market value attracts more buyers and creates stronger competition.
2. The Home Didn’t Show Well
First impressions matter. If your photos didn’t wow buyers or if the home looked outdated or poorly staged, people moved on. Even tiny issues like chipped paint or outdated hardware can turn buyers away.Here’s what to do:We’ll walk through your home with fresh eyes to identify potential turn-offs. Simple updates like removing old drapes, light staging, or a fresh coat of paint can make a big impact on buyers.
3. It Didn’t Get the Exposure It Needed
Simply uploading your listing to a few websites and hoping for the best doesn’t cut it anymore. If your home wasn’t in front of the right people at the right time, you missed your window. Here’s what to do: Listing your home isn’t enough — we’ll create a targeted plan to maximize its exposure. With the right pricing, staging, and marketing, we’ll position your home to sell quickly and effectively.
4. There Was No Flexibility in Negotiations
Buyers in today’s market expect some give — whether that’s in closing costs, repair requests, or creative financing options. If your previous agent didn’t help you navigate that, you may have missed good opportunities. Here’s what to do: Be flexible and open to negotiation to help get the deal done. With home values up over 55% in the past five years, you likely have room to offer buyer incentives without hurting your bottom line.
Why Partner with Sac Platinum Realty?
We're not just another real estate agency. We're a results-driven, local team with a proven track record of getting homes sold, even when others couldn't. Here's what makes us different:
1. Strategic Pricing: We use in-depth local market data, recent sales, and buyer trends to determine a price that attracts attention — not scares buyers away. Our pricing strategies are designed to generate interest quickly and create competition among buyers, which often results in stronger offers.
2. Elevated Presentation: First impressions are everything. From professional staging consultations to high-quality photography and compelling listing descriptions, we make sure your home looks its absolute best — online and in person.
3. Targeted Marketing: We go beyond the basics. Your listing gets a custom digital marketing campaign, including social media ads, email marketing, video content, and optimized exposure across all the major platforms where buyers are actually looking.
4. Proactive Communication: You won’t be left wondering what’s going on with your listing. We keep you informed every step of the way, with transparent updates, honest feedback, and actionable advice.
5. Negotiation with Purpose: We help you understand the importance of flexibility without compromising your goals. Whether it’s navigating repair requests, covering closing costs, or exploring creative financing options, we work to make the deal happen while protecting your bottom line.
6. A Personalized Game Plan: Every home is unique. So is every seller. That’s why we build a custom plan tailored to your situation, timeline, and property — no cookie-cutter solutions here.
