If your home is not getting traction, the recent pace gives a clear window for when to adjust and what to fix first.

If your home has been sitting and you are unsure whether to wait it out, I would not stay passive for long. In Chaparral, AB, a typical sale took 22 days last month, so I see that as a practical checkpoint for pricing, presentation, and buyer response.
A home that misses the market rarely fixes itself. Over the previous 30 days, Chaparral, AB had 20 new listings, 17 sales, and 21 active homes for sale, with supply at 1.24 months. That tells me buyers are still transacting, so when a listing lingers, I would look first at positioning rather than assuming there is no demand. The next thing I would check is whether the asking price matches the property type. Recent typical values were $735,900 for detached homes, $593,200 for semi-detached homes, $444,800 for row homes, and $301,500 for apartments, while accepted offers averaged 99.7% of asking. That combination points to a market that rewards accuracy more than wishful pricing. Review your showing feedback immediately and look for one consistent objection. Adjust price or presentation before the listing drifts too far beyond that 22-day benchmark. Tighten photos, condition, and availability for showings. In Chaparral, AB, I would make one clear change quickly rather than several small changes too late.
