[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's one reason we got such a great deal on our house, which is in a very competitive neighborhood/area. First they were divorcing, but also the home had dark floors, old furniture that was oddly placed and off-scale for the rooms, one room was staged in such a way that even though it was a bedroom it didn't look like a bedroom - so it sat and sat even with two price drops. We made a below list offer, they negotiated up a bit - we accepted.  We landed at $180K below their original ask.  We painted, changed all the floors, repainted the kitchen cabinets, ripped out the 90's travertine in the bathrooms. [/quote]

It's ruthless to take advantage of people in one of the most stressful times of their lives, but this is how you get a deal.[/quote]

Ruthless? How? We didn't base our offer on the fact that they were divorcing. We based it on the fact that the house was sitting for months with two price drops and no offers, and that the decor was outdated, dark, and ugly. Yes I'm sure they were eager to get out because of their divorce but that's on them, not us. [/quote]
