[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My reactions:

Odd to have an ugly leaning chain link fence on a $1m house; that would need to be replaced

Backyard has a dilapidated putting green; that needs to be ripped up and returned to normal grass

Backyard is in rough shape with dead grass and the concrete patio looks like a bad DIY job

Only 2 truly functional bedrooms, and most people spending this much for a SFH want at bare minimum 3 legitimate bedrooms.

Upstairs bedrooms have those ceilings that cut into headroom; not a dealbreaker on their own but flat ceilings are preferable

Kitchen is serviceable but doesn’t look great or desirable

1,500 sq ft is a bit tight for spending this much

The whole picture just feels like a pile of compromises and the home (especially the exterior) gives off a vibe of owners who didn’t care to maintain the property.

Add up all the costs to resolve the above and you’re above $1 million. This is an $849k house at today’s interest rates, not a $939k house.[/quote]

I agree with all of these.  That back yard and fence!

You walk in the door and there is nowhere to put anything, just right into the kitchen and living room.  The kitchen cabinets are not great.  It looks like they did "just enough" to list it.[/quote]
