Good Luck!

Susan, I just noticed your signature. Wow, that really puts things in perspective. If I have 40 more chances to see flowers bloom then I'll be 101.  Hope my eyes are still working then.

House is on the market right now. We had a not so good experience trying to sell it using an auctioneer...now its listed with Century 21...We had it listed for 2 weeks without a showing, when we had our realtor add a thousand dollar bonus to the MLS listing to the buyer agent ( plus their 3 percent) last week we have had 5 showings and one offer so far:
2k less than our asking price( sounds small but we are only selling for 110k and had a recent appraisal of 123k) we can live with but 2k off asking plus seller pays down payment, seller pays all fees and closing cost, seller pays for inspection, seller pays for home warranty....you kidding me? ( what a crazy offer it was...but at least we got one).
We paid cash and we know what WE will accept in cash, all that other nonsense is more money OFF the offer and it was another 10 grand. I was blown away that someone would expect you to pay THEIR downpayment on home that already has built in equity, we know the market is slow and it is priced to sell under the value as it is for a fast sell....people want something for nothing, I can't believe banks are allowing 97 percent financing to someone who has no money to put down.
Our agent says one of the other viewers is interested but is out of town and we should hear from her this week...until then keeping the house in showable condition is the challenge...it's tough knowing we could have an inspection (showing) any minute...this is the part we cannot wait to be done with.
We also have a St.Joe burried next to the front porch.

Our house was on market 16 months before it sold last week. Three different times our realtor told us she was "almost 100 percent sure" we were going to get an offer. We didn't! But don't give up. It will sell.
By the way the price we accepted was 30 percent less than it would have been 18 months ago. And that is in middle America. Nonetheless, we are glad to have it sold.

Safe Travels.

I got stuck selling mine during the downward crash of the market to the point of no showings. With the glut of inventory agents were focusing on selling the listings within their own office and not including other offices listings in their showings to clients.
Desperate I added 3,000 bonus to the buyers agent and my house sold the following week. This DOES work. Agents are dieing on the vine too and pick and choose what listings they will show to clients that net them the most money.

I couldn't agree with you more on this one. I likened this to chinese water torture! I hated it, you tell them 24 hours notice and they're wanting to come in with 2 minutes notice.
Hang in there! Soon we will see your post that it has sold!
