You need to find some new appraisers who are not working for a lender/broker. They will give you some real numbers that are not pushed to make a loan work. Also, if the appraiser is not using listings and pendings in the appraisal in today's market the appraisal is a joke. Closed sales alone are old news.
Something else you may want to give a try is to get the inspections done ahead of time. A buyer may see it as being proactive, and besides, you'll know what work needs to be done before it closes, and can always have all that work done ahead of time. But everyone in here seems right, in our market, price drives...

On the plus side...can the market get much worse??
Probably will not really start moving again until after the first of the year, unless you really have to take a hit and bail out.
Good Luck!
Price does drive but there needs to be a contempory draw. Check Badburns comment on the floors. Solid surface countertop? Is that a vinyl floor in the kitchen photo?
Repeat after me, Ceramic, Hardwood & Marble, Ceramic, Hardwood & Marble, Cer......
Do you have an open house EVERY Sunday afternoon?
Do you advertise each open house in the area newspapers every time like it was the first open house?
Get a nonaffiliated apprasial. Visit all the other open houses in your area.
If you are doing the above, Be patient, be patient. The market is retreating somewhat. Just make your home neutrally desirable.

Not till next spring anyway. Prices should actually start coming down next year. Right now it seems most prices are holding, but not a lot of sales.
