You should never send a home visit before they've given you the drop message or else the "I can't wait to sign" message and you believe there's some competition.
If you sent 8 SVs, that's probably not enough. Conventional wisdom says 10-11 SVs are the minimum to get a pulldown.
Send 2 or 3 more and see what happens. If that doesn't work, try 4 or 5 more & etc until the kid commits. I've used as many as 30 and I know others have sent a lot more than that if the kid is hard to pull down.
