“Check,” “Check,” “Check” . . . $%!&#!
Scarcely 24 hours after pre-list networking my upcoming Plymouth listing (on Edina Realty’s proprietary “Network One”), I got a “hit” from a Buyer’s agent.
Scanning the form summarizing the Buyer’s criteria, I quickly saw why: their preferred area, price range, home size and style all closely matched my client’s home.
So far, so good.
Then, I saw what looked to be the deal breaker: under “Date added” (to Network One), the Buyer’s agent filled in . . last January.
I’d never say “never,” but a prospective Twin Cities home buyer who’s been looking, unsuccessfully, for +7 months, is (very) likely: a) unmotivated; b) unrealistic; or c) both.**
Most likely explanation (by far): “c.”
**At least for a $250k home, my client’s list price. At higher price points, Buyers’ home searches can take commensurately longer.
