I was out showing Romeoville townhomes this morning. Priced between $160,000 and $200,000. Just off of Weber Road.
The subdivision is newer, under 10 years of age, and there are about 8 units on the market. We've now seen four...and two of the properties are possibilities.
However...one of the units that we walked into required us to wear dark sunglasses! The home was painted with bright oranges, yellow-greens and red. And, you saw all those colors at once. The property has been on the market over 300 days, and I'm betting that every buyer who walks in...turns around and walks out.
But, that's a mistake. The unit has a great floor plan and as far as we can tell, it looks larger than the others and it's reasonably priced. But not sold. Which means that my buyers should be able to get it for an even better price!
Sellers...when your agent tells you to "neutralize" your house...don't get upset. In this market your home has to look, smell and be a model home...or it won't sell. Period. End of discussion.
And, also...if you're having a showing...please don't lock your screen door. We can't get in. Yup, this also happened this morning. Showing was confirmed too. But, no way to get at the Sentrilock!
And some people think real estate is boring!
