No offers on house yet
Hello All,
We moved from Atlanta to Bay area and our house is Atlanta is on market for approx 55 days (Feb 10th - now) with no offers. It's a SFH (built in 1996) in a good school district with 75% finished basement. We bought it in Feb 2015 and are going to move to west coast. We realized that our house has three big negative points (confirmed by feedback sent by potentials buyers) that we kind of overlooked when buying it. It was our first house purchase.
1. Steep driveway
2. Small Kitchen
3. No bedroom on main
We are thinking of renting it out if we don't receive any offers in next month or so. The only issue is we are going to be on west coast. How practical is it to rent out a property which is not driving distance? My spouse doesn't want the headache of managing a remote property (totally valid point) and is inclined towards selling the property 10-30k (including commissions and all) below the price we paid for. Needed your valuable opinions on this.
We have reduced the price once and will do it again next week. This will be final price reduction.
