I recently experienced a painful situation with a family member. After listing their property, I gave an agents open house and received the feedback that I knew: over priced and under conditioned. Of course this seller had no money to do updates yet refused to get the price to reality. "Three things sell a house. Price. Condition. Location. We cannot change the location and youve told me there is no money for updates, so we must accomodate with price" This house had four showings in 35 days. This meet deaf ears. Needless to say I gave the listing back after being told I did not know the market! Mind you, I was just named sales associate of the year for Birmingham. I guess it becomes even more frustrating when it's family. Today Ive been "dialing for dollars" on my sphere list to make me feel better after being abused.
