Cemetery Property Listing

[Rosalie DiPietro]

Just listed my first property that not only backs up to a cemetery but the entire 32 unit, u-shaped development is surrounded by a cemetery.  There are no trees to mask the view of the tombstones which start about 5 feet from the back fence, including a panoramic view of the entire cemetery.  

I consulted with other agents who have sold properties as such and they recommended to let prospective buyer or buyer's agent know about the cemetery before scheduling a showing.   This is now shrinking the number of showings.  And, on top of that, I have a seller who is adamantly against an Open House.

I realize that such a location will definitely be a deal breaker for many prospective buyers.   Would like to hear from other agents who have had listings with a cemetery backyard view.  Any tips or experiences are greatly appreciated!  #IonlyNeedoneBuyer

You're not describing the property accurately. You should be advertising it as "Quiet Neighbors!"..
