We sold our home in Draper our realtor did nothing to help. She was not willing to give us a real price that the mega monster could catch so I did all the leg work and told her after 1 yr on the market to drop the price. She squacked like a chicken, my husband almost divorced me but the place sold. Now it is up for sale on a short sale for less than what we sold it for. It is not only the owners fault.

I think an owner has to realize that their home is not worth 2.6 times the home next door that isn't selling either and both were built in the same year.

I hear ya! We looked at Steeplechase because we originally wanted to be in Draper and our agent said it was a really nice subdivision. It was nice but all the homes were crazy expensive. We ended up in South Jordan and love it. But I see why it's frustrating. Our "neighborhood" has literaly 2 streets. Some houses are listed at 1.6mil and others that are short sale or bank owned in the 400-500k range. No one likes to take a loss on their home but SOME people are just not realistic.
