Bill, of Bill and Brillo had a post on here saying that you should make your house priced as low as "you can stomach", and we followed his advice.

The best way to see what your house is probably worth is to look on Trulia. It isn't really what it is worth, but what the banks will appraise it for. All the short sales have devalued all of our property, I believe.
We took Bill's tough advice just simply because now is the time for us to enjoy life. We are both 70.
Just sayin'. Not meant to offend.

Great advise,we are in a new and different real estate market.You have to do whatever it takes to get the property sold in today's market.My partner just sold her home for $40,000 under a 3 year old bank appraisal, and Lexington,Ky has a really stable market, with very few short sales or foreclosures.Good luck to you all , hope to see you at Market Square on the dance floor.
