What is it Worth to You to Be Able to Move On?
I recently received an offer on one of my past listings from a "protected buyer." The sellers are no longer together but are still tied to one another because of this house.
Both told me individually that it's time to move on -- that they needed to be done with this. I could hear in each of their voices the "wear and tear" this house was putting on them. You can't help but feel for them.

The parties in the transaction were far apart on the price, and it was easy to see why. It's simply a difference in perspective. One sees the dated kitchen, the dated baths, the old windows, and the oil tank in the basement. The other sees the the financial ramifications of accepting an offer any less than their "bottom line."
