Default Re: Asking price of homes

Thanks for the input.

Today we did our first tour of homes. My TV Realtor said 2 to 3 Percent was average reduction of listed price. However we found one we liked that was higher than our budget, of course. Our Realtor has been pushing us to make an offer at our budget which would be an 11 percent reduction.

The home has been on the market a long time. It is In the North and backs to a farm. That is worrisome and may explane the reduction in price. We have no control over what happens to that farm land.
