What competition? Not even under contract yet.
The competition of the two or three homes that have been on the market for 6 months and can’t get a buyer.

Who would compete for AU Park anyway.

Bigger lot, smaller home, not as nice as the one OP posted, priced at 2.2m, and has been sitting for six months.

Similar size, not around the prestigious AU park, priced at 2.1, and has been sitting for six months.
The house OP posted definitely looks nicer than those other two, but it doesn't seem worth 100k or 200k more.
I actually think both of these are nicer than the one in the OP, particularly the second one. Also, the square footage seems quite stretched in the OP. It is quite a small house when you look at the floor plans.
+1
Both of these are nicer than the ones the OP posted. The quality of the renovations is much better than the OP post. However, I still can’t like any of these layouts. These are basically single family homes with a townhouse layout.

It's not "people", though lol, just one angry flipper/seller that keeps coming back.

I mean, you can at least try to make yourself not be obvious, OP.

I just noticed someone bought it in May 2023 for 1.15mil. And now they are asking over a million more for this renovation? Wow.

Not a damn thing about that house looks cheap. Sad trolling attempt. Get a life.
Nothing looks high end either. The finishes are very basic. Kitchen made of stock cabinets with bunch of filler pieces to make things more or less fit. Mid-range appliances, cheap pre-finished floors. It is not absolutely terrible, but it is all pretty meh.
It would be over $3 million if it was all high end finishes. None of it looks cheap, and you know it. You people are sad.
DP. The house you’re trying to sell is average at best. You need to accept it. There’s nothing in that house that screams “special”. It looks like a standard builder grade renovation that every modern home has. But with below average craftsmanship. The picture of the bathtub, for example, the wall tiling isn’t even. And in the kitchen, there are random gaps in the kitchen cabinets. I could nitpick more but I’m guessing people who saw it in person probably have said worse things. It just looks below average.
You need to accept reality. This house is overpriced. Hence why it’s sitting. If it was that remarkable, it would be gone by now. Don’t worry, it will still sell. But the fact that you keep getting angry that everyone doesn’t love it and think it’s worth the asking price…says a lot.
Yup.. PP, it's understandable that you're upset about overpaying for a mediocre reno job, but no one here is to blame for that. Your realtor should be able to provide some of those comps you're wanting, though.

Nope, it would still be a small house in an ok but not great location. 3mil would be quite a stretch for this house with any finishes. I am not worried that it will sell but it is pretty sad that this is what more than 2 mil gets you now.

It’s fing Spring Valley in the AU Park is why it’s sitting. The price in a better location is just fine
