And the beat goes on...

I had an offer on of of my Listings. It was a very weak offer but my Clients/Sellers were willing to negotiate. The Buyers did not even respond to the counter and waited to let us know 5 minutes before the dead line. Was this offer made in good faith? I think not. The purchase amount that these Buyers were offering was rediculous. We were all shocked at how badly this was handled. The Buyers agent never even followed up with me for a discussion...a little unprofessional I would say. The Buyers had come to the Open Houses many times. They love the house but the last time they brought the parents...the parents want them to move to Los Gatos. So there is the problem, I deduce from all of this that the parents are holding the purse strings. Why make an offer at all and waste our time?

On a different note I have an SF listing coming on. No I don't typically do SF listings...only in special circumstances for special people. This was my beloved Paul's flat. For those of you who remember he was my first boyfriend and lifelone friend. He died of an AIDS related illness in 2008. I am selling this for his brothers. A labor of love....

I have 4 Palo Alto lisitngs coming up in the next several months and am looking forward to kicking off a new ad campaign.

So there you are it is a good year! All of my loved one's are healthy and happy and the market is brisk.
