The key to selling your house is PRICE. Find out what other homes in your neighborhood are selling for. Compare your house with those on the market. Is your house the same, worse or better than what you see for sale. Find out what has sold and price your house correctly. Look at listing it around 90% of it's valued price.
When people see a home on the market for 6 months they say "What's wrong with it?" You need to be offering the most for the money. You most likely will get multiple offers and can get more than your asking price. If people feel it's a deal they will want to jump on it.
Also the rock wall and patio may not be the best place to put your money for return on investment. Kitchens & baths are high on the list. They will return the most for your money. Maybe a clean up and some landscaping can improve the outside areas without draining your budget.
Price it right to get excitement on you house! Too many sellers expect a higher asking price and hurt themselves when listing.

Depends on your location. Some places seem to have started back up from the bottom, but other places (especially in the West) are still bottoming out, so a few months or a year may be better.
I'm planning on selling right now, but only because I think this is the bottom of our market so I can buy a more expensive house for the lowest amount possible.

if you want to sell a house now, it's a good time to sell. deciding to sell your home is a personal choice, so if you're ready then do it. if you're only trying to make a profit, calculate what it will cost you to do the repairs (i.e. time, materials, mortgage payment, etc.) and see if it even makes sense. doing a few improvements may not bring you that much more profit, so just go over what exactly you'd like to gain from this.

a lot of it depends on where your house is. I have seen houses in Florida sell after six months after the initial listing. I don't think nwo is a good time to se4ll becuase the feds are getting loopy on their rate hikes or cuts. I would wait until April see what develops if you can wait that long.

What type of market are you in? If you are in a soft market ie one with slow sales then no it is not if your market is desirable then go for it. I live in FL and have had a house for sale for 5 mos with not even so much as a showing. You can definitely sell your house it just may take a while.
