Yesterday, a lady called me about my home on 1408 Dearborn St in Caldwell (I own it). They were in love with the home. They decided they wanted to buy it. We settled on $175K, I sort of figure that I was going to pay another agent $5k to bring the buyer. They had a home they needed to sell first. They were willing to list it with me. Doesn't get any better, does it? I went to their home, they have no equity to speak of. I probably would have to do yet another short sale. It is cute, decorated in Victorian style with lots and lots of dolls (the fancy kind). It is also right next to the highway in the worse part of Caldwell. I think I could list it for 99K and settle around 90K but they have a mortgage out for 90K. I asked them about finances they don't have near enough to qualify. The lady looks like she wants to cry. I felt the same way because she would have fit so nicely into the house with all her dolls. I wonder if she could run a B&b out of the home..... I did the market analysis on her home and pulled up some listing to give her next time I'm in Caldwell (no internet)... The family could get into a larger home in a better area of Caldwell... Sometimes its sad being a real estate agent...
