I put this sucker on the market in the fall (bad time, I know). I got a great job offer I couldn't refuse and had to move.

Unfortunately, I have yet to "realize" my new, higher salary because I'm paying double for housing until the old place sells. It's a nice house, not too old, large, pool, etc., in a good neighborhood but it's not getting many showings.

Is it in the suburbs? All my home-buying-age friends are moving into/near the city, the definition of "good neighborhood" has shifted a bit from years past.
Have you lowered the price? A house properly priced will move in any market.
I listed it for exactly what it was listed for when I had bought it... about 7 months prior (and at that time it drew multiple offers within 2 weeks on market).

It really was an unexpected situation.

Markets can change rapidly.
