They only have four bedrooms while the one featured in this post had five... quite a difference. They'll also have to deal with a foreclosure near by that has yet to show up on the comp's. While the price per square foot is a good indicator of value... banks will be looking at what actually sold nearby. Eventually 7059 is going to have to deal with this comp.

Should we tell 7059 E. Magdelena, who are listed at $284 ? ( $925,000 for 3,261 sq. ft.) Since they are 4 doors away, do you think they already know? Just think, drop the price by $155,000 to $770,000 and sell the house! But no, that would be waaaay below market, the average list price is over $300 sq. ft. in the neighborhood; 7059 already HAS the lowest price per foot in the neighborhood. Only been on the market 99 days, just needs more exposure. Yes, the buyers are out there somewhere, and there is a way to find them.... So the answer is to reduce your price to $236 per square foot?

Buyers are out there, somewhere. I think these sellers are definitely inspirational. They definitely had some trying times, but they made it. Yes! Buyers are out there, somewhere.

As a home-seller in this market (also forced by a new job) it is frustrating and stressful. But there's comfort in knowing that others are just as anxious, there are buyers out there- albeit slow-moving ones. Thanks for the great interview, Julie.
