We’ve been trying to buy a home for months in this town and it’s just plain tough. My experience with Battiata’s outfit is that we placed a bid on one of his listing at 15% over asking price….nothing…no word. Then a couple of months later the firm calls for highest and best…we up the offer…we want the house in chula vista originally listed at 237K, our offer 290…still nothing…months later they ask for highest and best, so we stand pat. (Comps by the way are running 260-290 in that zip code (91910) Bottom line, the home that listed in December has still not sold. It sits vacant and Battiata’s people won’t even talk to our Realtor. As a selling agency, I’d say that I’d rather deal with any other firm than Matt’s.
