It's hard to know how many showings you should be getting. It differs based on your home—is it a high-demand home in the suburbs or a 55+ community with an outdated condo? It depends on the supply of homes in your neighborhood and buyer demand for your home. 

Rest assured, I can help with my 25+ years of San Diego homeselling experience and give you guidelines below. 

What's Your Home Worth Today?
 
Here's a rule of thumb: 

• You want to get 3-5 showings your first week.
• Then 2-3 showings each week thereafter. 
• Once you hit ten showings, you should get a sincere offer.
• If you're getting showings and don't have an offer in the first three weeks, your home is likely overpriced by 1-3%. 
• If you have no showings and no offers, your home is likely overpriced by 5-10%.

Culprits of low showings and no offers: 

• The price is too high
• Not available to show daily
• Tenants uncooperative or not available for occupancy at closing
• Pets, Clutter, and Deferred maintenance turn off potential buyers. 
• No open house for public to get on buyer's radar and see the home 
• Too many competing homes relative to buyer demand
• Your home can't be financed with all available loan programs, such as FHA, VA, Non-QM, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac.  
• Not marketed properly
• Not open to buydown 1/1, 2/1, 3/1 programs to get lower loan payments like new home builders
• Not cooperating with buyer's agents (no coop fee or too low a coop fee). 
• Not on the correct MLS, Not on multiple MLS's
• Not syndicated to Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, ColdwellBanker.com, Remax.com, Homes.com, and others.
