Selling My House (Part 2)

[patb]

Okay

So I decided to put the place up and having listened to the
Piggingtonians, I decided to employ Housepad.

I checked they had access to the OKC Gateway MLS (now called Tempo)
which covers cleveland county where Norman is.

The price seemed fair, and having talked to one or two other flat fee MLS
people, i thought Hosuepad had better service.

I checked out the contracts it seemed okay, but I had my attorney read it.
He asked if Housepad was on the Norman Multilist, turned out they
weren’t, and didnt’ know what it was. Ryan at Housepad offered me
either a discount, or to charge me for joinign Norman Multilist.

Well we did that, and he got me on openhouseok.com, which is the local
website for houses, they are sort of minimalist, but what the heck.

I thought housepad didn’t have the best support on all the forms they
send you, if you call their number the operators are nice, and kind of
know the answers, but, maybe they need better definitions on what to
put on each form, the OKC MLS register was no kidding like 9 pages
long, and took a long time to get right.

but i think they have it right, but it’s still not on realtor.com

so it took a week to get a review on housepad, took a week to
do the paperwork and a week to get the MLS issue squared away.

but my sign is in the lawn and i’m seeing if i’m in the MLS

Some food for thought, who doesn’t think their price is ‘fair’? Realtors currently report 11 months of inventory, so for every house that is actually priced fair enough to sell, there are 10 homeowners wondering why their ‘fairly priced’ house is not selling (probably more like 12 or 13 if you count FSBOs, etc.)

I think he meant the price for the service, not the house.

as the other commenter noted i thought the 249 for an mls
listing and a 49 charge to be on OpenHouseOK.com was quite
fair.

as for inventory, the national levels are high, but in OKC,
it’s low, 20 years of depressed economy left very little
new construction until recently which the energy boom is
sucking up.

That 4 dollar gas? it’s big bucks here.
the list:pending:sales ratio here is 1:1:1
which is amarket in balance.
