Client E-Mail Question #4 >>> Stigmatized Properties
The following is an e-mail written to me by an actual client, along with my response to it:
 
Hi Sheila,
David and I have thought long and hard about this stigma thing, and we have carefully weighed what you told us about it, and we have come to a conclusion. We are just not willing to take less money for our home because of something that happened here over four years ago that has no bearing on the home’s value. For that reason, we have decided not to disclose the murders. They just generated way too much media attention, and they are still fresh in the minds of anyone who lives within 100 miles of here. I know what you said about your policy on this, but we are hoping you will see our side and reconsider. Let me know what you think, okay?

 Hey Brit,
Thanks for your honesty on this…I know you guys have struggled with it. Let me say a couple of things and we can go from there…
Your concern is understandable, and I get it. No one wants to go into a listing period convinced they are going to get less ... more
