90 days to sell a home? Good luck

Q: In a recent column about listing agreements, you wrote that you never advise sellers to sign a listing agreement longer than 90 days. This poses a problem for me.

As a Realtor who sells in an area with average days on market of 151 days, it would not be financially prudent for me to spend all that time and money marketing a listing that most likely won't sell because the average days on market is a lot longer than 90 days.
