Sellers REJECT an Offer! How to NOT Sell Your House! - UPDATE


For those of you who read my blog about my attempt at buying a condo in Arlington - and got rejected! - I wanted to give you an update on the property. They did a small price reduction (4%) after about 45 days on the market....and have now withdrawn it, after 70 days on the market.

In this market, I think it's important to keep a level head. That's where Realtors come in, we're here to help keep emotions at bay when dealing with buying and selling. Sometimes seller's don't really need to sell, just like some buyers don't really need to buy...but if you're actually serious about buying and/or selling, it's important to objective.

You've got an offer...work with it! Even if it's low, try and get them to come up a little...if they walk, they walk! But at least you didn't just tell them to Buzz Off!
