Excuse me for saying Mr. and Mrs. Seller, but, I could have sold it for that price....

You know the feeling you have in the pit of your stomach when you see one of your previous listings, that didn't sell, come back on market at a much reduced price? It doesn't happen often, but I'm really perplexed when it does because my first thought is....Gee, I could have sold it for that price!

Honestly, I can understand the Seller's desire to pick a fresh agent to sell since they weren't successful before. But to reduce by 20 or 30 thousand dollars and re-list with another random agent is hard for me to understand. Especially since we had the conversation about the need to reduce in order to get more activity, etc. I'm sure most of you know what I'm talking about. So the Seller decides they can't or won't reduce and the listing goes off the market. Then, the house pops back on the market, re-listed at a much reduced price.

It kind of leaves me scratching my head….thinking, well, at that price, time to find a buyer!
