That in itself sounds like it could be the majority of your problem. You have the right idea in mind to work on that... don't give up!
I hate to say it, but not participating in Formal Rush might be a mistake. I know that I at least like to keep all of my options open, and eliminating 6 other sororities for one is scary, especially for new students. It took me all of Recruitment to decide that I wanted to join Alpha Phi as opposed to the other national sorority on campus.
Another thing, a house isn't everything. We had just gotten a house when we went through Formal Recruitment and only got one girl. Quota was 3, but XYZ got 5 girls total because they were smart in making their bid list, and at least 3 girls suicided them. They didn't have a house. It's all about presentation. They did a better job of that last year, apparently.
