“When a house is vacant, buyers make
low-ball offers, hoping to take advantage
of an owner they think is desperate to
sell. Furnished, decorated homes strike
an emotional chord, and buyers make
premium offers.”
—Allen Baron,
Coldwell Banker
Vacant Houses Are Hard to Sell

•Vacant homes sell for at least 10% less than occupied
homes
•Vacant homes take 30-60 days longer to sell
