Getting Bored? Selling Your Home Shouldn't Be a Waiting Game...

No new viewings. No clear updates. Just silence. You’re still on the market, but it’s starting to feel like you’re in limbo.

Selling your home is an emotional experience. You start off excited, full of hope and energy. But after a few weeks of… nothing?
That energy drops. Fast.

No new viewings. No clear updates. Just silence.
You’re still on the market, but it’s starting to feel like you’re in limbo.

Sound Familiar?

If you’ve been Googling things like:
  • “Why is no one viewing my house?”
  • “Should I switch estate agents?”
  • “I’m bored of trying to sell my home”
…then you’re in the right place.

Because here’s the truth: you’re not bored with the process, you’re bored with the lack of one.


✅ The “List and Wait” Trap

Far too many agents follow a tired old formula:
  • Upload your property
  • Post it on the portals
  • Hope someone finds it

And when that doesn’t work? They suggest a price drop… or they go quiet.
That’s not a strategy. That’s pure laziness.

✅ Your Sale Should Have Movement AND a Plan

If you’ve been on the market more than 3-4 weeks without momentum, here’s what I’d be checking:
  • When was your last listing update? Has anything changed since launch?
  • Is your home being promoted actively – on social media, email, and local databases?
  • Are your viewings being followed up on?  With energy and purpose?
  • Has your agent checked in with you lately – or are you doing the chasing?

If the answer to any of those is “not really,” it's no wonder you’re bored.

You’re doing your part. The agent isn’t doing theirs.

✅ Boredom Means Missed Opportunities

Here’s the bigger issue: when things go quiet, buyers notice.
Stale listings get skimmed. Lack of urgency means less motivation to act.
That’s why energy, strategy, and visibility are vitally important, not just at launch, but all the way through.

What I’d Be Doing Differently
As your avocado property partner in Ruislip, Pinner, and the surrounding areas, here’s how I keep your move moving:
  • Weekly strategy reviews - what’s working, what needs adapting
  • Smart relaunch plans that re-energise buyer interest
  • Consistent marketing across multiple platforms - not just the portals
  • Honest, proactive updates - not radio silence
  • Upskilling myself on industry trends and staying on top of key market information

All the above ensure momentum for your property sale. The kind that turns interest into quality offers from people who are ready and motivated to move!

Because selling your home shouldn’t feel like waiting in line.
It should feel like a process with a destination, with a professional driving it.

If your sale has stalled and you’re losing steam, let’s talk.

Upsizing is an exciting step, but it’s more than just gaining extra space. It’s about putting yourself in the strongest position to secure your dream home in a competitive market. From finances to strategy, the right preparation can make you the most attractive buyer when moving up.

If you’re feeling stuck between wanting to move and not knowing how to emotionally handle it, here’s what I’d say...

It’s been a few weeks (maybe longer), and the buzz has faded. Viewings are few and far between. Updates are sparse. And your agent’s enthusiasm? Nowhere to be seen.

Are You Searching 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...
