We are in the midst of attempting to buy a new house for our family. My wife and I are both 39 and our third child is coming in May. We purchased our first house new in 2012 for $244,000. It is 2300 square feet which is a nice size. However, the square footage is used quite poorly. Huge family rooms, terrible closets and storage. The house we are looking at building is 3596 square feet and will cost around $695,000 all in. This comes out to about 193/sq foot. Slab foundation, 3 car garage, master on main, 5 BR, 4 BA, good school zone, not a bad lot (neighborhood greenspace on one side and behind and another house on other side). Does this seem like a good value? We think it is pretty good since most of the houses in this zip code are usually like $1,000,000+ nowadays. However, this is still a lot of money so wanted to ask. If this is not the place for this type of question , I will delete and move along. Tennessee. submitted by /u/PenguinRhin0 [link] [comments] source ...
In the PNW. Listed our 1800 ft2 1933 renovated house. Agent convinced us to list at a higher pr8ce than I would have. Have 57 saves in less than 24 hours, which I think is stellar. Two showings scheduled. Open house on Saturday if we get there lol. We are motivated sellers but own it outright. Being very bearish on the economy I want to sell it fast so told agent will look at any and all offers. This is my 7th actual house sale so we are not rookies. Will not accept any contingent offer (other than financing if pre-approved) No inspection contingency should keep the Karens away. Probably the last real-estate deal I'll ever do submitted by /u/TJMBeav [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1ssmejz/listed_yesterday/
