About this house selling thing, on some level we don’t sell houses, buyers buy them. If there are fewer buyers than logically we have to have fewer sales. :( By the way I love the makeover!

Just keep doing what you’re doing. Or better yet, come to California and do it for me so I won’t have to spend my darned life in the car. :) They’ll be hanging out in Michigan soon.

Then come vack to us. Great post, the mental abandonment of the property is a very valid point.

Unfortunately, I can’t really tell these prospective sellers … “in spite of everything I tell you, Mr. and Mrs. Seller, you’re going to have someone walk in and lie to you to put a sign in your yard. Don’t listen to them, for your own sake.” What makes it even more difficult for those of us who don’t purchase our listings is there always seems to be an agent around who will.

Are they hanging out in CA? Mariana, that unicorn thing truly killed me. I have not heard that one before. We did have here of a buyer calling in this week asking to pay no more than $300 a month in payments for a home in our city. You could never have tax payments less than that if you bought a house here, let alone principle and interest on a mortgage. We needed the unicorn parking for them! John, send me the BUYERS!

A joke around our office was, “You want a huge house, for way less than market value that needs no work, in the nicest part of town for a payment less than you are paying for your studio apartment? … Would you like a garage large enough to park your unicorn, as well?” Remember when it was the BUYERS who lived in la la land?

In this market, you want BUYERS to switch to you, not sellers. :) I know what you mean about just joking about wanting sellers to switch agents.
