Open House Report
I didn't mention any houses I saw on Tuesday's open house because I'm not mean enough to give my opinion about some houses. But the house pictured above caught my eye today. Originally listed for $2.695 million in April, 2003, it took until January of the next year to sell, at $2.4 million. In a strong market, that was some evidence that there were "issues" with the house. Its cramped flow, the graveyard behind it, whatever. The buyers then are the sellers now and, although they've done nothing I can see since their purchase, they've marked it up a million bucks and offer it to you for $3.4 million. It's entirely possible that I missed certain hidden charms here and that it will be snapped up by an eager public but I look down the street at what's available for $3.6 million and consider other houses in this price range and I, for one, wonder what on earth these people are thinking. Still, everyone has an opinion and mine is no more valuable than anyone else's. For all I know, this could be somebody's dream house, just waiting for the right buyer.
