We have another bid out on a house located here in Kansas City. I have to say - most of the real estate agents we have dealt with are nothing more than legalized crooks. Holding offers until they get multiple offers, telling you that you must send in full offers with ernest check and pre-approval. Then finding out that they never had the check or the pre-approval when you were asked to renegotiate against these people. I mean…wtf. Aren’t there laws to protect people from this kind of stuff? Oh wait…nm - the MREC prefers to chase down people for others matters - other than the job they are actually hired for; IE: Protecting the Public.
Soapbox off…

After a month of teetering and half ass marketing we decided to list it with a real estate agent friend of ours and BAM! within 1 day - we have a prospective offer and 2 other showings with possible interest from both other showings!. My feeble marketing attempts were really…just that feeble. I really wanted to retain the home, for anything because we did so much to it - nothing could go wrong and finding a great renter is easier than everyone thinks. It just takes a lot of diligence and looking.
I think personally I got way to “connected” to this house. I showed it to one woman and thought - OMG no way! I would not rent to this lady let alone sell my house to her…thats when my real estate agent pulled me aside and said “uhmmm, so when can we meet so I can list your house, you will never sell it at this rate?” ….hahaha.
So here we go, I guess its the beginning for someone to live in that little charmer of a house. I hope someone that will truly take care of it buys it, it is such great space.

I hired these AMAZING hardwood floor guys…probably the best thing I have done thus far - aside from the cabinet people…they have been so great. Dusty’s Hardwood Floors - phone number to come.
Dusty and his brother arrived early and gave me a fair price and will be doing some of the work that the other “guy” did not finish. They answered questions without hesistation, let me watch, showed and explained to me what they were doing and set the agenda. Something I had not experienced once in this entire project. It was refreshing, not to mention - they hold their clients in the highest regard.
It is so nice to know that not all people are jerks…
A huge thank you to Dusty and Derek…
Randy and Bob and Billy…and hey Randy - You need to follow your dreams and go out and start your own thing. You have the personality - its magnetic, people genuinely like you and you have the brains and the know how. I hope you do it…if you do - call me - I would love to work with you again.
Peace!
