selling homes: IT DOESNT NEED A PAINT JOB
- 09/08/16 12:15 AM
I watching a home in my neck of the woods that should have sold in days going on two months now. It appears that the sellers are running the show instead of the listing agent. This is one of those listings where the owner drove a hard bargain in regards to commissions & control and the agent goes along with it.

You pass by them every day wherever you go. At some point, everything was for sale and someone bought it. It was prime and in demand then.... and is prime and in demand now.
