Ok, this is a rant thread.
I have had my house up for sale for some 7 months. We are in a great community, although it is aging, our house is 35 years old. We have added two rooms to it over the years. We have upgraded our bathrooms with tile, etc., new countertops in the kitchen (granite) repainted and recarpeted virtually every room.
The kitchen does need new cabinets and a new light to be "updated". The outside which is cedar, has been newly stained. Our drive way is new, our furnace/ac unit is only 4 years old, our water softner is 8 years old.
Our landscaping is gorgeous, with two water gardens with fountains. we live on a cul-de-sac and have one of the best back yards in our neighborhood.
But nobody likes our house......it is different, it is a transitional, not traditional.
But the feedback we have received over the months has ranged from insulting to asinine.
Our current listed price is only $15,000 more than it was when we bought the house in 1991.
Please, somebody tell me, wtf do people want when buying a house?
