Why a Home That Sits on the Market Keeps Getting Harder to Sell

In a traditional sale, time works against you. The longer your home sits, the more negotiating leverage shifts to buyers. Here is the sequence most sellers in a stalled listing go through:

The listing goes live with some interest, but offers either do not come in or come in well below asking.
The first price reduction draws fresh attention, but buyers who already passed often stay away — they assume the seller is desperate.
A second or third reduction signals to the market that the home has a problem, even if the only problem was the original price.
Conditional offers come in with long inspection lists, and sellers who have been waiting for months feel pressure to accept terms they would have refused at the start.
Deals fall through because of financing gaps or buyer cold feet — and the home goes back on market with an even longer history.

What Changes When You Sell for Cash

A cash sale removes the entire chain of dependencies that makes a traditional sale fall apart. There is no lender to satisfy, no appraisal to clear, no inspection contingency, and no buyer who might change their mind. The transaction is between you and Adam and closes when you say you are ready.

We buy homes in any condition, with any listing history, in any neighborhood within our coverage area. If your home has been on the market for 60 days or 260 days, that history has no bearing on our offer process. We look at the property.

You do not need to take the home off the market first. You do not need to make repairs or address inspection items. You do not need to hold more open houses or spend more on staging.

You reach out, Adam assesses the property, you get an offer in 24 hours, and if it works for you, you close. That is the entire process.

In February 2026, the national median days on market was 66 days — up 9 days year over year. Nearly two-thirds of home buyers in 2025 received a price cut off the list price.

“The entire We Buy Old Properties shtick looked like a hoax to me, so I had a buddy of mine who’s a retired realtor call them up and see what was going on. He got back to me and said they seemed legit, and that he would hang out with me while they did the inspection/offer. My friend had given me an estimate on what he would have charged someone, and We Buy Old Properties wasn’t too far off. I had already paid off my place, so I wasn’t in a rush for any emergency reason, but they did make it pretty quick to get paid and out. I appreciate the honesty and no-games strategy they use.”

Frank, Danvers, MA

“I was moving back to Brazil to be with my family after living in Quincy for fifteen years, and I knew the paperwork with the State and potential buyers would have been exhausting. I had a friend from work tell me about a We Buy Old Properties sign she’d seen on the street, so I called them up to come over. I was hooked when they told me they could buy the house the next day. I got a fair offer, and because I had already sold a lot of what I had and shipped everything to Brazil, the house was off my hands two days later. Incredibly fast and efficient.”

Juliana, Sao Paulo, Brazil

“My parents’ house was busted, but since they moved out to a nursing home, nobody had taken the time to clean it up. The vinyl siding was dirty, and the garage didn’t really deserve the title of ‘garage.’ It was more like a shack. Either way, we needed to sell it to make sure our parents were set with their new housing costs. I contacted a few agents, and they started laughing when they saw the place. Basically we were told we’d have to do a bunch of work if we wanted to get anyone interested in the space. I saw an ad for We Buy Old Properties, and they didn’t bat an eye when we had one of their guys over. 24 hours later we got a fair offer and were able to make sure our parents were set for years to come.”

Joseph, Woburn, MA

“I had a few people stop by to take a look at the house, and I knew there were some things that needed fixing, but the potential buyers were being the way they always are; uh oh, I see this, that, etc. I have my own business I have to take of, so I can’t be spending more time on something when I have to take care of my own employees. I saw an ad for We Buy Old Properties, and the idea that I could be compensated for my house without going through the regular hassle was incredibly appealing. For sure We Buy offered a lower price than what agents were telling me they could sell it for, but the price isn’t worth anything if the house aint selling. I figured I’d take a few thousand off rather than dealing with the paperwork and uncertainty that I’d have to go through. I guess We Buy Old properties was good for my lifestyle; quick, easy, and straight to the point.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know the offer is fair?Harsh Singh2026-03-23T20:03:18+00:00

How do I know the offer is fair?

Adam bases offers on current comparable sales in your area and the home’s actual condition. We are transparent about how we arrive at the number. You are welcome to compare it to your agent’s estimate or a formal appraisal. We want a transaction that works for both sides.

What if I receive a traditional offer while considering your cash offer?Harsh Singh2026-03-23T20:02:47+00:00

What if I receive a traditional offer while considering your cash offer?

You are under no obligation when you request our offer. If a traditional offer comes in that works better for you, take it. Our offer is no-obligation and there is no cost for requesting it.

My listing agent still has a contract on the home. How does that work?Harsh Singh2026-03-23T20:02:20+00:00

My listing agent still has a contract on the home. How does that work?

Review your listing agreement for exclusivity terms. Many contracts allow for a direct sale to a buyer the agent did not introduce. It is worth a quick conversation with your agent before you proceed. If the listing has expired, there is nothing to sort out.

I have already had a deal fall through once. Can you still buy it?Harsh Singh2026-03-23T20:01:56+00:00

I have already had a deal fall through once. Can you still buy it?

Yes, and this is not unusual. Failed transactions are frustrating but they do not prevent us from moving forward. We do not depend on financing, appraisals, or the contingency chains that typically cause deals to collapse.

My home has been on the market for over 90 days. Does that affect your offer?Harsh Singh2026-03-23T20:01:31+00:00

My home has been on the market for over 90 days. Does that affect your offer?

No. Days on market does not factor into our offer process. We evaluate the property on its current condition and comparable local sales. A long listing history is common among the homes we buy.
