Seller gets $26k more than originally offered.

The seller of this property at 4344 S. 51st in Greenfield was contemplating of selling it to Homevestors for $125,000, when on a lark he decided to call us. For those of you who are not familiar with Homevestors, it is a franchise that typically buys properties in need of work and for a price below market value in order to remodel and resell for a profit.

One of our agents Julane Myers went to the property and upon further review she suggested that seller could get as much as $160k for it. Seller was reluctant and afraid he might not get much more than the $125k he had already been offered. At the end, he did agree to market the property at $149,900 since he was in a hurry to sell. Within a week 3 offers were on the table with the winning offer at $151K. Seller was ecstatic to say the least and very appreciative at Julane for insisting at the higher price.

The seller was wise to take the advice of an extremely experienced agent (as ALL of Homeowners Concept's agents are). We hire only competent, honest agents that abide by the Realtor Code of Ethics.
