We don't often get happy updates here, but I joined C-D about a year ago to get real estate advice. Several realtors here were (and still are) very helpful.


To any of you NOT in a HOT-HOT market, don't give up! It took over three years to sell our rural place in Utah, but it finally happened. #1 offer was from my former employer (ultimate irony), #2 was our neighbor. Sold to #2, cash.


Good-bye property taxes, homeowners' insurance, handyman costs, freezing pipes, house-sitters.....BYE!


I believe our 3rd realtor was a much more aggressive marketer. We have some friends in rural WA that also took 3 years to sell their place.


I think we're going to the Galapagos to celebrate. Thanks to all you helpful realtors!

That’s great news! And I hear you on the aggressive realtor - pricing it right is only half the battle if nobody will make an effort to get it exposed to the buying pool

Congratulations! I'm sure that being out of the country only added to the delays and to your frustrations. Being rid of the property is great news. Hopefully now the only albatross that you'll think of is over the ocean.

Congratulations. We sold a property recently, too, though this one was on the market for five days, so maybe not so much of an accomplishment.

It's nice to know we won't have to worry about it much longer. Enjoy that feeling.
