It is a strange phenomenon, but I seldom see a house priced right fail to sell. Poor Realtor, poor Seller, poor, poor, poor. It would be terribly wrong for me to suggest that a Professional Realtor behaving professionally can't or won't cause a house to be sold faster and for a higher price, but the best of the best can not get a price out of a home whose value just doesn't exist.
I would venture to argue that 90% of all homes, even in today's market, listed for longer than 120 days are overpriced. In years past, we always heard that homes are our greatest and best investment. Because we are in America, investment profits are not guaranteed, but then neither are they placed under a profit ceiling.
