House on the Market .... questioning realtor's strategies

[Leo Ryan]

Our home is on the market and was listed 3 weeks ago. We have a 4/1 and our realtor knows that my husband is very handy. They think we should flip one of our bedrooms into a bathroom quickly. We have only lived here for 16 months and have very little equity. We are moving out of state and think need every penny we have to be able to do so. Is this a wierd request. I understand what they are saying when people search they normally look for a 3/2 but I just don't think we are able to do this. Any suggestions of what we tell them? The market is very tight here but I think we will have to wait it out. Any suggestions on promoting the 4/1?
