How do you make a Real Estate Sandwich?

By
Real Estate Agent with Sibcy Cline Realtors®

  The way I make a Real Estate sandwich is to take two listings on a street with another Brokers listing between them.

  I have this situation in my Geographic farm and it is a good feeling. The first listing that I took on the street is priced at 194,900 and is a 13 year old 4 bedroom 2 story, 2 and a half bath, with a 2 car garage.

 The next home to come on the market is listed with another broker and is the talk of the neighborhood. This home is a 3 bedroom ranch, 2 and a half bath, with a 3 car garage priced at 234,900.

 The wonderful home that I used to complete the sandwich is a 3 bedroom ranch, 2 bathroom, 2 car garage priced at 204,900.

  So there you have it. Great product on the outside but unfortunately something a little high fat in the middle. Sometimes it is better not to get the filling if you can use it to your advantage. The two homes that I have listed are priced attractively. The filling would set a new neighborhood record if it sold for 15,000 under list. Thank you very much to the agent that listed the home without ever seeing it.

Hmmm.  Sounds like the middle of the sandwich is processed ham- high fat, no value- and you've surrounded it with healthy wheat bread!  I like the idea of your sandwich!

The "filling" Sellers should be concerned that their home is going to help sell your first but then again it could have been them who set the price.
