Also note the Days on the Market: 270 average. There was 1 home on Johnson Place that was first priced at $424,000 That price was too high to start with. Then it had a price reduction to $349,000. Then another reduction to $344,000, It finally sold for $334,000.

HI Jackie, oh, 216 days and finally a bidding war, I love it! Buyers never believe you when you say there is another offer, it is as if the idea to buy the house went out in the universe and everyone picked up on it at the same time!

Hi Andrea, Bidding wars around here are far and few between right now. But a waterfront property at that price in Lindenhurst NY, is rare and hence a bidding war.

Hi Nick, Me either! That is why I was surprised. Well, sort of surprised. It's a waterfront so that is why the bidding war happened. I showed it to my buyers back in April and they let it go.
