We've had 2 in the last year.... no dice. At this point we've lowered the price, have on MLS and FSBO as well as 15 other sites. We've not found an agent that really works for us. It's kinda sad actually! The best we've ever done w/ people are the ones I've showed to. I'm just going to have to take a shot at it. We'll pay an agents fee if they bring us a buyer, or we'll sell it on our own... it HAS to sell eventually though, right?!
At this point as long as we can make it work financially we'll accept anything reasonable. We had a good offer but it fell through, very disappointing. But you're right, there are 270 houses for sale in my town! :O Only one (mine) with taxes under $10,000, .75 acres between $500- $550. Our taxes are a strong selling point. We have neighbors paying upward of $28,000 per year... crazy! Ours are $7110! (with the STAR program)I have to change the MLS listing now... it came on today and there are mistakes. I'll list it as 3 BR's and office.I HOPE you're RIGHT!!!!
Hell yeah! That's why we're outta here! We could expand but we don't want those taxes!I just updated MLS. 3 BR's and 4th BR or home office... more realistic in my opinion.And yes Marci, I WILL hold you to it! You are now my "Virtual realtor" lol
I will! You'll hear me jumping up and down and yelping for joy! LOL!Seriously though, thanks for backing up my gut feeling. It felt good to get some reassurance and guidance. We haven't been able to find that here. I sure hope my instincts are right!
I agree, BUT... we've had it listed as a 4BR and it hasn't sold. I think it's misleading. I do agree w/ you, but been there, done that. For a family of 3 or 4 it's great. For 5 or 6, not so much! A family of 3 or 4 might seek a 3 BR w/ a possible 4th or home office. A family who *really* needs 4 BRs would not be happy w/ this house. I don't want to waste MY time or ThEIRS, know what I mean?
Really a selling question....
