This is the neighborhood I received my first town-home listing.  It was almost one year ago and I listed a gorgeous townhouse decorated impeccably for $259,900 3/2.5.  That of course was about the time when it all hit here, I remember there were 23 town-homes on the market and 2 FSBO’s.  How in the world was I going to sell this condo that looked  exactly like the other 25 for sale?  Well, a few price reductions, some staging, aggressive marketing and some motivated sellers finally got us an offer only a few months after listing.  The bad news came only 3 days before closing and the sellers, who had purchased their dream retirement home in Florida had packed up and left a few days prior.  The prospective buyers would not be able to close on this house because they did not get their Green Card that they anticipated.  Devastation for me and the sellers!!  Anyways, after putting it back on the market it did attract another offer and it sold.

In the meantime,  I was contacted by another neighbor in Charleston Row and asked to meet with her and her father to talk to them about re-listing their town-home.  It had already been on the market for over 6 months and their listing agreement had expired with their agent.  I agreed to take the listing.

I am still marketing this same listing but now after almost a year there are only 7 homes on the market.  Most have been pulled due to the dramatic decrease in pricing and frustrated sellers.  The first foreclosure entered the neighborhood about 6 months ago and they have continued a steady stream ever since, most averaging around 200K.

The activity has been tremendous lately and we are anticipating an offer very soon.  It has paid to be patient and I am thankful that the sellers are just that.  It really does have it all with great schools (Peachtree Ridge Cluster), Shopping (Discover Mills), Gwinnett Arena, easy Interstate access, andyou get to live across the street from Sugarloaf County Club for 1/10th of the price!
