This weekend, my listing on my house has ended. I've extended the listing a few times but as October comes to a close, so has my interest in continuing to sale the house. We really tried. I've done countless price drops and ended up at $399,900. Friday, I had a couple very interested in the house. They spent almost an hour in the house. The agent said they loved it and needed over night to consider it. It was their first home purchase. I patiently waited. I didn't hear anything. So today we are done. I can't feel too bad. We probably had 50 groups through over the last 2.5 months. I've had 3 offers that all fell through. It has to be timing because my house is cute.
So I am settling in and getting ready to slob out a bit. I can't wait to cook in the kitchen, leave some messes around, and not make the bed each morning. I'm quite disappointed but just not interested in dropping my price further. I'm tired of the fire drill of getting ready to show it only and go sit in the car down the street to have the buyer pick it apart. I'm so sick of hearing how unacceptable my basement is. It's a 1950's home. That is how they did it then.
I'll try again in the Spring with an agent more familiar with my area. For now, I need to get busy finding someone to help me with the snow this winter. It is time to also start thinking about the holidays and enjoying another holiday season in my home.
