The housing market is a lot tougher than a lot of people realize. My sister has had her house on the market for 3 years and has reduced the sale price by about $100,000 and still nothing but lookers.
And what amazes me is the builders just keep putting them up. I sympathize with the builders, they got to eat too. And to be fair, in my subdivision where 12 house have been on the market for over 360 days, 2 newly built houses sold within 30 days of completion (they we're build to order. So to some degree, I can see the method in the madness. Why buy a devalued older house, when you can buy a devalued new house with better energy efficiency, a warranty, and new applicances and mechanicals.

I have a KY Real Estate license that's been sitting in moth balls since 2007. Someday, maybe it will be worth paying the dues to go live with it.
