It's NOT SELLING.

I am a recently licensed Realtor in the South Florida and I ended up listing my clients house recently at the end of November. However, there have been no offers on the house. There have been around 5-6 home previews on the listing from various buyers but no offers. I listed the house for $410,000 and it is a 5 bedroom 2.5 bath house 2,956 living sq ft. I did a CMA and at the time I was using comps from August. The problem is the community is located in a very single family oriented gated community so therefore most families do the moving during the summer. There was a house that recently sold ( In December) RIGHT NEXT DOOR to my listing that sold for $499,000 ( 5 bedroom 3.5 bath 3,456 living sq ft) in 7 days while my sits on the market with no activity. I just want to know how to sell my parents house ASAP. Unfortuanely, the sellers do not want lower the price by more than $10,000. There also has been some new very competitive houses around the area that have more living sq feet for less money.

My question is, what can I do to SELL the house soon while not giving it away for a steep discount??? I was thinking to do more local outreach on the internet with other realtors and tell the about the current listing in order to sell it. Also, I was planning to add more professional photos (HD Quality) along with a lower price tag by $10,000. What do you guys advice??? I really want to close the deal. Thank You!

I recently listed my first house in my area. However, I am worried because no one has reached out to me or called to schedule an appointment to preview the house! I listed it yesterday and I am wondering what should I expect when I first list a house and hope for buyers to come to preview. Did I overprice it???
