Working with a friend of the GF. She's got a very nice condo...worth 900 or so, and wants to get away from HOA and get a little privacy.
It's been a beating, because she wants me to show her houses that she cannot buy until her condo is sold. Finally, this morning, she came to the realization that she needs to sell first, so we're going to get it listed this weekend.
I've got to give her a good-guy discount on the listing, but I'll also have her for the buy (which should be all-cash) so I'm stoked. Also stoked to have a cash buyer in the pipeline, because the market is insane right now.
One of the houses I showed her had over 20 offers and went 100,000 over asking. The agent told me that he was discouraging offers after he was swamped, or he could have gotten much more.
Interesting note about the agent; he was disabled. He was driving a little scooter deal in the house. Must be a real bitch to be a realtor when you cannot see upstairs in any home.
