Selling my House (Part 1)

[(former)FormerSanDiegan]

Cool. 292K for a 2500 sf house in Norman, Oklahoma without a garage.

How much would it cost to rent a place like this ?

On the surface it would seem to me that places like Temecula/Murrieta are less expensive. I wonder when we’ll see people flocking to Temecula from the midwest because of housing costs 😉

Keep a close eye on the most recently sold comps! And how comparable are they, really?! That’s what your buyers are most likely doing. And try not to kid yourself. Be as objective as possible. Ask other people besides close friends and your realtor about your price point.
I’ve only been out to OK a few times, but I would guess that no garage is not a good thing there given the winter weather conditions.
I’ve sold homes in good and bad conditions and it never took longer than 2 months to get an offer that I could accept and close on. Having very accurate comps by my side really helped during negotiations when the buyers wanted my price to drop.

well it was the fugliest house on the block when i bought it, the
sellers had been vacant for 4 months so they were getting
real energized to sell and the house has been completely redone,
i’ve put over $50K into the place, so, it’s very clean.

the house has a carport and room for a one car garage, so that’s
not a big issue, it’s like anything there is always a price and a buyer.

The neighborhood is very desirable, it’s the only freehold land
surrounded by Brookhaven a very desirable neighborhood.

i’ll keep you all informed.

I wish i coul dhave put it on the block sooner, but until the
painting and siding were done it was not going to be easily
sold and frankly, i wanted it very clean before holding the
open house.

Without knowing what the place looks like, I would definitely say that a 2500 sq ft without a 2 car or bigger garage is not so appealing.

I think the issue is how quick do you need to sell.
