Need advice

These properties are comparable to the the Babbling Brook property. These interiors are more upgraded. The Babbling Brook property has a better location/lot except for the this first comp.

Obviously I’m just selecting the ones that prove my point, while there at least 4 other properties that justify the listing price or higher. I’m more of a price shopper, then a fall in love with a house kind of guy. There are too many homes in that area that fit my parameters to overpay.

FYI, lot.location create more value than upgrades. You can always add upgrades but you cant make the lot bigger, you cant add a view or make the location better. Personally I would buy the best lot/location as long as its close rather than falling in love with upgrades that you may want to change anyway in a few years. But thats just me…

Cmon with the 2nd comp. Is that a nuclear power plant behind the house? Those are high tension power lines which take away 50K of value easily.

it depends upon whether it has been on the market for long and whether there are other buyers. If you love the home and lose it over $5K you wont be happy. If you dont love the home getting a better deal by 5 or 10K wont feel so good in a few months if you arent happy there.[/quote]

Well we countered $625k and $15k total towards closing, we met them halfway. Hopefully they’ll go for it, but you never know 🙂

sdrealtor… you mentioned not thinking that this area will further depreciate, even with increased inventory, what leads you to believe that?

I couldn’t sneak that one past you (power lines). You are right on about everything, espeicially location. That’s why we offered on the house. I took a chance and lost. We knew that we were taking a high risk of losing out on that house.
