17th deal - easiest one yet
Down and dirty facts
-Home was listed for $300k in area selling for $300-$400k
-Was on the market a little while, 4-5 months in Houston right now is a stale listing
-Price was reduced to $280k plus a $10k credit at closing to buyer
-I was able to get it under contract for $225k though some skilled & lucky negotiating so about $218k after my commission
-Closed on the house yesterday 12/17
-Got a lead today through Trulia someone looking in the area for $250k, and today 12/18 we are under contract for $250k scheduled to close mid-January with no realtor fees
If you don't think real estate is a blast you are doing it wrong!
