MY BUYER MISSED ON THE HOUSE THEY WANTED

This market it really wierd! There is so much inventory and prices have come down. Yet, still the same old difficulties...Finding the right house for a buyer. I believe this will be a year where the cream of the crop sells, and for reasonable prices. Yet, other homes don't sell at all. Some will sell at lower prices. Buyers today have a lot to choose from. They want the RIGHT house, not just a good deal. As a matter of fact, the Best home is not always selling for a DEAL.
This weekend I took a buyer out to look at a few homes. We found a resale they liked. We found a short sale they liked. And we found a SPEC home they liked. They actually liked the SPEC home best. We waited a few days and went back to the builder. To our dismay a buyer was sitting there with the OUR SPEC home file in his lap. They bought the home. We snoozed and we loosed!
My buyer later conveyed to me how that home was the home they really wanted. Yes, there are a ton of homes out there for sale. But the best homes keep on selling. If you see one you like, don't hesitat.
