Do You Feel Stuck? Here’s What I Notice About House Sellers in This Position

Are you searching for these phrases? “My home isn’t selling, and I don’t know why.” “I feel stuck in a sole agency agreement.” “How do I get things moving again with my property sale?” If yes, it means you’re in what we call the “agent gap”, when your agent’s actions no longer match your goals...

Some homes don’t sell quickly. This can happen.
But what is more frustrating is when a sale doesn’t just stall, it gets stuck.
No new interest. No strategy. No change.
If you’ve been feeling like your house sale has hit a wall, here’s the good news:
You’re not the problem. But your current plan might be.


The 3 Signs You’re Stuck in the Agent Gap

  1. Passive communication - Updates are rare, vague, or only come when you chase
  2. No evolution - The marketing, pricing, and strategy haven’t adapted since launch
  3. Emotional burnout - You’ve gone from hopeful to frustrated to disheartened

Sound familiar? I'm sorry to say, but you’re currently stuck.


So, What Should Be Happening?

Sellers in this position need 3 things:
  • A fresh, unbiased listing review
  • A new injection of energy into marketing and targeting
  • An agent who can read between the lines of buyer feedback

Without that, time drags on and confidence drops.


What I’d Be Doing Differently

In Maidenhead, I work with a lot of sellers who feel stuck, and I help them move again.
Here’s how:
  • Pinpoint exactly where the sale lost momentum
  • Reintroduce your home to the market with new creative energy
  • Reframe pricing or messaging based on real-time buyer psychology
  • Work with you closely to rebuild belief in the process and the result

Because when you feel stuck, it’s easy to assume the only option is to wait it out.
It’s not.

Buying a home in Twyford can feel risky, but waiting is often far more expensive. We’ve done the hard work and looked at the past five years, comparing the pounds lost through renting versus the equity gained by buying in Twyford.

Let’s call it what it is: being on the market with no real progress is frustrating.

The question you should be asking is: “Why do I want to move?”

If you walk down almost any Bicester road or street, you will see the quiet signs of life playing out behind the front doors. Families growing. Kids leaving home. Kitchens are being refitted for the second or third time. Yet somewhere in that rhythm, every homeowner starts to feel it again ... the gentle itch to move.
