N. Cleveland Park 10 days on market

[Anonymous]

Looks like this other listing in the neighborhood was also just pulled. Flippers bought for 850K and were asking 2.2mil.

Realistically that one is not anywhere near Cleveland Park. To be fair, it’s Tenleytown. You can tell by the giant shadow of the broadcast towers

Is the orange counter top going to cause this to sit past Memorial day?

What the heck is North Cleveland Park? Do you mean Van Ness? On Reno? Great they love it, because no thanks

How did they get for $850k this year in the first place? Close to the metro and shopping!

1. House sat for three weeks because WE (the owners) determine what we are willing to let the house go for. We LOVE our house. We LOVE being on Reno and we LOVE our neighborhood. We have soundproof windows and almost never hear any noise from Reno. We also have never had any break ins, shady people walking around our house or stolen packages, unlike our neighbors on “quiet” streets. We were willing to give up our beautiful house and relocate if the sale price made it worthwhile. We had multiple offers over list price that we rejected and ultimately decided that we love our house too much to give it away.

2. For those of you complaining about the size versus price: you obviously have different priorities. The reality is that you cannot get a large, (non-builder-grade) remodeled house, with a completely private rental unit, driveway with space for two SUVs, storage, fenced patio, and new roof in North Cleveland Park under $1.5m. Everyone values things differently. Our house is perfect for our family and we wouldn’t change a thing about it. We have no reason to sell it at a price less than it’s value to us.

3. For inquiring minds: there is nothing wrong with the pipes. We drinks a lot of water. We prefer spring water. And we forgot to cancel our large bi-monthly delivery order while we were out of the house getting it ready to go on the market. The water was delivered just before the house was listed. And also, yes, we ARE and WERE living in the house and certainly not desperate to sell.

4. Marjorie is a great agent. She is tough but she is honest. She doesn’t play games. The market is what the market is. Until a week before we listed, the market was in a ridiculous bidding war frenzy. Market has slowed. This is because interest rates have been rising. This affects buying power.

Thank you to posters with kind comments and legitimate questions. For everyone else, I hope you find something more satisfying and productive to do with your time than troll message boards and slander a community professional.

I've always admired your fig trees.

Yeah she stalked my parents on Cleveland park. They got a bad vibe from her and hired someone else.

Isn’t she elderly herself? Is she selling?

You're free to pay $250,000 over asking for them.

That was definitely overpriced at $2.2m, but it was only on the market 6 days. Wonder what happened.

Did anyone on here see it? We walked by and the lot looked so small. I don’t see how 2.2 is even in the ballpark

Let’s hope the owners aren’t going to be total flakes wasting everyone’s time and money by listing it for 500k less than they’re willing to accept.

It’s a cute place for a family with one kid. But good luck in this market lol
