WFB,
There you go again comparing apples and oranges. That house was likely never worth 899K so who cares that they overpriced a few months ago. The fact that no one is biting at price today is of little relevance because there are very few buyers out this time of year. To sell today they would have to take less than they could get in a couple months, not because prices will rise, but because as SD R so adeptly explained, it is the secular trend.
BTW, the larger house in The Cove is inferior construction, inferior floorplans, likely under stadium lights from Poinsettia Park and is a 2 story. The house on Solandra is a 1 story which makes a huge difference. As for how my colleague marketed it, I could care less.
Here’s some good advice. Instead of flailing wildly, find yourself a good local realtor that has lived in the area at least 10 years and been in the business at least 5 years if not more. Someone like me who doesnt care when you you buy because my livelihood doesnt depend upon it. There area lot of good realtors in this area that can help you out. BTW, I dont accept clients from this board so you’ll have to find one on your own.
