The listing agent said she had held 2 open houses and had the sign out there for a few weeks, nothing. If I had got to her last week I could have had it at the asking price. As soon as it hit the MLS it exploded.
Interesting. So the realtor wasted several weeks putting up signs and holding open houses rather than just listing it on the MLS the first day and getting a bunch of offers?
Just another one of those things that make you go “hmmmmm”.
The best deals are likely to go to those with inside connections. It is probably always this way in good and bad markets both.
