Despite being appraised at $100,000 more than their asking price, they have received no offers. Real estate experts Donna and Shannon Freeman intend to change that in both cases.

Meanwhile, Sarah and Tim Olsen purchased a five-acre horse property two-and-a-half years ago. Maintaining the property has always been a challenge, but after Tim's recent work-related injury, it has become nearly impossible. The couple has decided to downsize to a one-acre horse property instead, so they listed their home on the market nine months ago. Despite reducing the price once, they still have not had a single offer. That is until Donna and Shannon Freeman show up with a plan to get this place — as well as the first one — sold.

The condo has been listed as "For Sale By Owner" for nearly two months with some interest but no offers. Meanwhile, Serena and Levelle Benson purchased their house in 2004 for $489,000. Over the last three years they have spent about $20,000 in renovations and were in the midst of updating the kitchen when Levelle accepted a new job in Texas. The home has been on the market for two months at a list price of $639,000, and time is running out for the Bensons. Staging experts Donna and Shannon Freeman intend to change all that.

| 13 :01x13 - Closer to the Family; Renovating to Sell (Sep/16/2007) | Nedra and Gil Weinreich have decided to move in order to be closer to Gil's family and their kids' new school. Over the last eight years, they have made a few structural changes and upgraded the bathroom and replaced the roof.
