The colors are horrible. So is the mess in the patio. The barking dogs are even worse. If they want to sell, they need to move out and clean up the place.
Here’s the link to the pictures.

November 9, 2007 at 10:54 AM #97704ibjamesParticipantthanks a lot for the feedback.
I know they are trying to salvage as much as they can. For us to say chop the price it’s tough for them, they want to use the money to get a place in Carlsbad.
They realize their area isn’t as nice as Carlsbad, but don’t realize that Carlsbad too will go down one day. Something I’ve had a hard time explaining to them. He’s a bit older than me, and I don’t do real estate for a profession, so to him, I’m just spouting off. Even though I told him to sell over a year ago and he now admits it also. I would decrease it like a user posted in another thread, take what money I got out of it and be happy I have that even, he doesn’t realize how lucky he is still.

November 9, 2007 at 2:06 PM #97841movieloverParticipantI was the one that suggested the redecor and staging. I think aside from those minor things, he also seriously needs to cut his price. He is still being a little greedy, but tell him to look at this way: he can also low ball in Carlsbad. He is one of the lucky ones. He can still make a decent profit, plus be a buyer in a buyer’s market.
You can only lead a horse to water. It’s up to him to start drinking. If he wants to hold out, then he deserves the harsh reality check he has coming.
