As long as you keep your positive attitude you I think you will find continued success, its all about the silver linings.This thread serves as a great resource for investors as well as fantastic entertainment.

Far from being annoying, this is one of the most entertaining thread I have read recently.

Certainly we can use examples from history such as toilet vs outhouse or running water vs outdoor well, but I think these are apples and oranges.

The statutory opening price is $100, no one is willing the price the bank will bid, so no one bids, so the sale price gets recorded as $100.It used to be entertaining when our auctions were live, newbies would show up thinking they could buy all these houses for $200, since they were seeing “$100 sale prices”.The reason the banks reveal this number is because they have to pay 2.2% fees on the bid price.....so they try to avoid bidders running the price up to $100k for no reason if the bank is going to $150k.Something similar occurred with your property.....it’s not because nobody was willing to bid $2200.....they weren’t willing to bid the $100k or $200k or whatever number the bank announced.

Since the subject house is approximately 400 sq ft smaller, would you consider them comps and if so, what would you entertain the per square foot price to be...$220, $225?

In some of these, it occurs to me turning the second kitchen into a wet bar would make for a nice entertainment area (aka "man cave".)Is yours something like that?

Owner financing allows you to sell at market price without offering deep disounts upfront or entertain low ball offers from people who have their own cash.

I came upon this the other day and thought it was so good, at least in entertainment value, that I thought I'd share it with BP.

Very entertaining James.

I sold an outdoor storage facility in Bonits Springs off a video based craigslist ad.
