Something Fishy...

Our Realtor talked with the house's realtor this morning.  He said that he didn't have a key and that he thinks someone made an offer on it yesterday.  Our Realtor, Sarah, thinks something is fishy about that house.

Why is this fishy?
1.  If you are the listing agent, you don't "think" there was an offer yesterday.  You KNOW.
2.  This house has been on and off the market a lot in the past 3 years.  It also is the lowest price house in the whole 5 mile radius.  This house should sell quickly - if they really want to.

So - the homeowners are probably not really wanting to sell this house.  They might be in a divorce or bankruptsy situation that they need to hold up the appearance of  "trying to sell" the house.

So, I'm sad to report that we won't be seeing the houses this morning.  We are going to talk with the Realtor to discuss the buying SS and Foreclosure process and figure out all the ducks we need to have in a row anyway.  I have a list of other houses to drive by but I have to say that I'm kinda bummed.
