My husband still recalls the disparaging term he used to describe the sellers of our house, based on the state from which they hailed, primarily because they refused to leave when we first toured our home. If they hadn't been there, he would not have made judgments about them. And judgments can color a buyer's opinion.
We've all met the sellers who think they are "helping." But the stuff they disclose is astonishing. Like the sellers in Sacramento who told buyers last week all about the troubles they've had keeping the AC running to cool off the house during a recent hot spell. And that was on their way out of the house for a home inspection. Now the buyers expect the HVAC to be replaced.
You also will not believe what I told a seller yesterday when, at the last minute, he decided he would rather be home for our open house. I was chuckling to myself as I dozed off last night just thinking about it. You can read more in my personal blog today at this link: Why Sellers Should Leave During an Open House.
