There was a house in Fairchild Village about a year ago that had the "wrong" price in the MLS for a weekend.Buying Timehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04651516505789196067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4622411633995176328.post-31424418787052376932009-09-29T22:06:51.397-07:002009-09-29T22:06:51.397-07:00Did you see it 'magically' dropped to $394...Did you see it 'magically' dropped to $394.9k yesterday.

Also, their is no real neighborhood feel. Where you are now is the opposite of this and much more.husmanenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12133974934289103581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4622411633995176328.post-61652406333659405872009-09-22T12:44:55.733-07:002009-09-22T12:44:55.733-07:00Funny things are happening.

These usually sit for a very long time then BAM the price drops 5%, 10% or more.<br /><br />By then the market has passes the prices on the downside and they are just following. <br /><br />Wishing will not get the home sold, neither will PR, marketing etc. Things that help are tax credits, very low interest rates and spring/summer. Basically, it has to be priced right for the current market. If it is, it will be gone in a few weeks.husmanenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12133974934289103581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4622411633995176328.post-86702092399399886392009-09-22T09:28:45.557-07:002009-09-22T09:28:45.557-07:00A guess: I've heard that some banks are requi...A guess: I've heard that some banks are requiring as a matter of policy on short sale agreements that a good faith effort be made to sale at the FULL debt amount.<br /><br />It is possible this new price is just a formality along those lines?Giacomohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13227656916787125958noreply@blogger.com
