    Jim puts me down Marion. Different ways. You are not privy to that for two reasons. You were not here when he struck first blood and this is over your head.I am not trying to hurt him. I think my posts before he got here were real and his wasn’t so much more than a sales pitch. Aren’t we allowed to ask for data?

    No offense intended, and sorry for the sales pitch.

    I haven’t sold any houses at 25% below list price, but I’ve offered that low and lower. I think buyers have the right to make offers, and agents should step up to help them.

    P.S. Rustico – your comment about striking blood was referring to today, right? If there was some previous incident, I’ll apologize for that too.

    Thanks Jim, That is nice. The other incident was a swipe no more. .Ask JWM, my sensibilities are indeed tender at times.

    No real offense intended on my part either, to anyone.
    You don’t spend much time here but it is a pretty raucous crowd. Many of us probably just see it as a blog and let it rip.Some would prefer only the “polite at all cost” types participate. Hats off to Rich for allowing for variation in form and content. Your friend Adam has been and is great.

    Most of us are numbers people here.

    Make a case for a reasonable price based on market trends, conditions, and current/historical data.

    It’s not hard to make a case that prices will drop 50% from peak, and more and more people are starting to actually believe it.

    Convince the seller that they could be holding onto it until they drop it that low anyway, and a 30% below asking offer might not sound so bad.

    Rustico – I read here more than I comment. Adam is a great contributor and he deserves the credit, and any business that might come from it. He even helped me sell a house that closed last week, so I owe him a beer or three. Want to come along?
