Snow All You Want - I'm Not Shoveling

By
Real Estate Agent with Resource One Realty, LLC

Today it was almost 50 degrees and the sun was shining.  It tasted a lot like spring.  Sunday we are expecting a winter storm and I'm very annoyed.  It's almost mid March and I'm sick of shoveling snow.  I know I can't fight mother nature.  While I can't fight it, I can ignore it!  I have a truck with four wheel drive and I'm not afraid to use it!

Yesterday I received an offer on a property listed in the mid $200,000 range.  The offer was significantly, ridiculously low.  My seller was, of course, annoyed.  This is the second low ball offer we've received.

Now I know what you're thinking.  This property must be priced too high or there is something wrong with it.  Trust me.  It's not priced too high and there is nothing wrong with it.  In fact, it is only a little over a year old, was hardly lived in by the owner and is in a very desirable area.

Fortunately, my seller is on the same page as I am. He's ready to take a stand.  He's not going to fight the low ball offers by countering.   He's going to take a lesson from my attitude about the weather and ignore it!  Low ball all you want, we're not shoveling.  If you can't come to the party with a fair offer, don't come at all. 

Take care.

Hi Cindy!
Good for you! There are times that you just have to take a stand! This sounds like one of them.
