Revenge of the Buyers!
A few weeks back the owner of 20 Partidge Hollow Road conducted a bidding war for his property. One buyer won, others lost, but one of the losers called the owner directly and offered to top the winning bid. The owner accepted that offer and reneged on his deal with the winning bidder. Well, something must have gone wrong because the house has been returned to the market today. I don't wish ill on the owner but the people who engaged in that bidding war in good faith surely must be feeling a certain smug satisfaction. And who can blame them if they hope that the house lingers all summer, now that the spring market has ebbed?
