Another West Babylon House Sold! Listed by Jackie Connelly-Fornuff of Century 21 AA Realty
This West Babylon single family house located in the Maple Court Development on Arnold Avenue in West Babylon was listed for $285,000 and sold for $275,000. That is 3.5% below asking price.
My client had to endure many low offers all because their house was on the market for "so long" according to Zillow. This informed me that these buyers weren't being told that some homes are not for every buyer. Many agents kept calling this home a condo. In the listing it specified it is a single family home in a Homeowner's Association.
I fought with the bank appraiser because he put on his appraisal that it is a condo. After almost 2 weeks, the appraiser changed it to a single family home.
We even had 2 accepted offers along the way and those buyers disappeared on their agents. So, 13 offers later we got serious buyers who knew for $275,000 you cannot get a 2 bedroom house like this for that price. And now I have new neighbors since I live next door.
This West Babylon house has 2 bedrooms, a spacious eat in kitchen with a very large pantry/laundry room, a spacious dining room and living room, a massive full bath and a nice size half bath, 2 walk in closets and a full, unfinished basement.
When you have a home that is not for every buyer, you price it right from the start, have the patience and faith that you will get a serious buyer. No need to drop the price a few times unless that is what you want to do.
