real estate advice: How To Get a Price break on your next home..... - 03/29/09 12:20 AM
Low-Ball Offers I got a call on my radio show last week from a very frustrated home seller. He is selling 30 acres of land in Topkea, not that far from Kansas City. But, every bid he gets is “way less than the house and property is worth.”
I told him to take his property off the market. We’re in a time frame where home buyers assume (rightly or not) that if you’ve listed your home, you must be a desperate seller who is anxious to sell.
