I appreciate all the feedback I have gotten from all of you knowledgeable realtors so far. House on the market 24 days and 3, count 'em, 3, potential buyers have come through. We've lowered the price twice, but not too much, because we think it was priced right to begin with - we are in Texas Oaks II off of Slaughter, priced originally at 189,900 for 1855 sq foot 4 br 2 1/2 bath remodeled home, at 11005 Watchful Fox Dr. My realtor says be patient. I'm trying hard but we have a contingency on a new home in Bauerle Ranch with a closing date of 8/1 and that realtor is beginning to worry a little. We don't have too much more room to go down because we don't have lots of equity in the home. Does 187,500 sound reasonable? You guys have been very helpful so far. I'm trying to keep my chin up. It's just really frustrating. Dena - Sat Jun 14 2008, 12:08
Just a quick follow up -- 2 weeks and 4 days now, and only 2 realtors have have come through with potential buyers. They said it showed great but didn't quite meet their needs. I know the market is slow, but geez!!!!!!!!!! My realtor even had an open house on Saturday and no one came except the one realtor who called that morning asking if she could show the house. :( - Mon Jun 2 2008, 15:17
