Selling my House (Part 1)

[unbiasedobserver]

LOL Trying to get TWICE the price from 2003 and they tell us there was no bubble in the Midwest.

i appreciate the input, it’s why i decided to go to the piggingtonians
to try and get some data and commentary.

Now the house you cited is in Blanchard which is some rural town,
nearby, wildly different school districts, wildly different environment.

Some of the other properties you cited are in the brookhaven
division which means paying their fees, and living under their
covenants, this is freehold property which i tend to value a lot
higher

there is a mistake in that entry you sent me.

It does clearly map to close to my division, but it shows a blanchard
zipcode.

is that a mapping error, a coding error? I don’t know,
i can drive by look at it, see if it’s for sale.

blanchard is 15 miles away which is why i first dismissed your notice.

pat, it isn’t what you value higher, it is what the buyers value higher.

But that aside, I listed close to a dozen houses and sales, I’m sure a few have variables. The one directly behind you that you share your back fence with, is bigger, has a pool and is 40k cheaper. If it sold, what did it sell for? My guess is that is your best comp, price a tad below their closed sales price and you will have found your market. Price above and all you have is a decorative sign out front.

Some of the mapping data is incorrect, it always is. If your house was in my zip code I could tell you the price in ten seconds, but it’s not. The point is that a data search of closed sales within a mile of your home, even if a few are errors, does not support a listing price over $100 a square.

I do think it is a cool little town, some of the architecure is nice, I just think you are overpriced for your market. If it sells great, if in 90 days you are still sitting there or if in 30 days nobody comes and views your home, then reprice. What does your realtor think? It has been 50 days, have you had any offers? The whole spring selling season went by without a sale so something is wrong.
