do you think the price of this house?

Lissa Deminie answered:
The best way to proceed is to bring a professional contractor to the home to assess the foundation and get an idea of what the repair costs would be and that would allow you to make an informed decision when and if you make an offer.

As a buyer's agent, I always make it a point to sit down and discuss the entire process involved in buying short sales and foreclosures since it is such an involved process. It can be rewarding in the long run though!! - Sun Mar 9 2008, 16:58
I've been in this home a couple of times - it definitely has some great aspects to it despite being on a somewhat busy road. The only way to find out what a bank will accept is to put in an offer and see what the response is. But as Jim noted, it has been on the market for quite some time so your offer would probably be considered.

Good luck! Haverhill is a great place to live ! - Sun Feb 24 2008, 04:32

I have to agree with James - a buyer's incentive will get buyers through the door. To me there is nothing more frustrating than seeing a listing sheet that says "$5000 BONUS TO ANY AGENT WHO BRINGS IN A FULL PRICE OFFER !!!!" How can I tell my buyer with a straight face (in today's market especially) that they should put in a full price offer ?

Your commission should reflect what the other full-service realtors in the area are earning. If 5% is the norm, that it what you should do. - Sun Mar 9 2008, 16:50

What is the market like in Haverhill Massachusetts?

Lissa Deminie answered:
Hi Gina,

The market in Haverhill is booming right now ! With homes available from $85k up to $1 million there is something for everyone.

As of today there are 220 single family homes available and 272 condos available. Homes are selling at an average of 23 per month and condos are selling at an average of 22 per month.

With interest rates still low, inventory relatively low, and buyer activity still high, this is a great time to sell. ( I can remember a year ago there were over 300 single family homes for sale!! )

Buyers are picky, however, and they are buying homes that are in good condition so your home needs to stand out amongst the others - - being neat and tidy will appeal to buyers! - Sun Feb 24 2008, 04:43
