[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did this years ago -- wrote a letter about how we were a young family looking to raise our kids in a great neighborhood, wanted to renovate, but wouldn't do a tear-down, loved their restored Steinway grand (which realtor had said would be for sale in a separate transaction) and would give it a good home, yadda, yadda, yadda. They took a lower offer from another couple who wrote a similar letter, but who also mentioned that the husband was a psychiatrist as was the seller. That clinched their deal. But . . . they sold us the piano, we bought another house in the neighborhood, and -- here's the kicker -- the couple who bought the house divorced after 3 years and sold it to someone who is now tearing it down. We do love the piano, though, and hope someday to pass it on to our youngest, a dedicated pianist. And, having lived in our house for 15 years, with kids now in HS and college, we're starting to think of downsizing (maybe in 5 years, when DD graduates from college). You better believe we're selling to the highest bidder -- we've had many happy years in this house, but I'm hoping to buy a small, mid-century modern gem for our retirement years. Of course, it will have to have enough room for the grand piano. [/quote] I like your story. Life is fascinating. Good luck to you.[/quote]
