I have a mid-high end house I've had in a popular area in an allegedly hot market, but it's unsold after 5 months, and I'd love some fresh eyes for a second opinion.Are there any flippers in the area that would be willing to spend an hour (paid) to give their tips to help move it?

I can only point them to tools they can use online to check for school ratings and crime stats and decide themselves.

Does anyone have rough partnership docs they would be willing to share or example docs available online to sift through to help us think through the issues?
