Price is psychologically wrong
Buyer sees the number and thinks "too expensive". Even if they like the apartment, they won't make an offer. Price corridor analysis solves this.
First impression doesn't match expectations
Photos showed it better. On-site: not cleaned, dark, personal items everywhere. Buyer's disappointment is instant.
Owner is rigid in negotiations
"I don't negotiate" is the wrong strategy. Buyers want to feel they're getting a good deal. Flexibility ≠ weakness.
Emotional selling
"This is my home, I know its value." Emotional attachment is not a market argument. Data and facts work better.
No follow-up plan
After viewing, contact is lost. No follow-up plan, no deadline, no pressure. Active management is essential.
Property doesn't stand out from competition
3 similar apartments selling in the same building. Without positioning, the buyer picks the cheapest.
