That is Not the Sales Price!

By
Real Estate Agent with Long & Foster 0225078705

Several times every week we get a call from someone that wants to buy an Atlanta home at what they think is a ridiculously low price.   It is almost funny to listen to a person that is all wound up about a home they thought was for sale.  However in their rush to find out more about the home, they did not read the online listing correctly. 

"Tara Plantation" for $15,000.  "When can I see it?", "...is it a misprint?", "I have cash", "I will buy it sight unseen!"  The web viewers are almost argumentative that you are not going to show them the home, because you will buy it for yourself.   Things could not be further from the truth.  The fact of the matter is the home is not for sale, but it is for rent!  The $3000, $5000, $10,000 price tag is the monthly rent on the home.   

FYI... If a 5 million dollar was truly on sale for $15,000 dollars, I would buy it myself!
