Five Months on the Market--Still No Sale!

So, here we sit. Living in a house in Northern Virginia that cost us waaaaaaayyy more than the average home in the United States costs. At the same time, our house in Indiana is sitting empty with no buyer interested. The position we are in has to be the most stressful postion we have been in in the eighteen years of our marriage. It is getting to the point where it is going to break us financially if it doesn't sell by the end of the month. Our Century21 Realtor has been working hard to get people to look at the house, we have painted, cleaned, landscaped and dropped the price twice, and still no one has even come close to buying. The complaints about the house are things that we cannot do anything about. The neighbors behind the house have some cars that just sit there all year round. They are visible now because the trees that normally block that view have lost their leaves. Another complaint is the neighborhood size. That is weird. The neighborhood is large, but in a great school district and when we lived there people were close to each other and certain sections of the neighborhood would have block parties and would definitely help you out if you needed a helping hand. At any rate having a beautiful home (that I didn't want to leave in the first place) sitting empty makes me sick. My husband has a great job that pays well, but we are facing the real possiblity of him having to get a second job, and of me having to go back to work as well. It is a terribly frustrating situation and the media doesn't help at all. They keep reporting over and over again how bad the real estate industry is and how bad the economy is and how terrible the mortgage industry is. It all seems so hopeless and it is just about to break us financially.
