Tag: Sell my house

I met with another realtor that was recommended to me.  I told her my issue about not being able to clean the place up before I left for two weeks.  She said it was no problem.  Stuff could be moved out while I was gone and the place could be cleaned and staged.  It would be on the market before I got back.  She also said it wouldn’t be an issue to work around my roommate’s schedule.  I decided to work with her instead of Trelora.  Soon, my house will be up for sale.  This makes me sad.  I love my house, but I don’t know when I’m coming back and I’m not sure I’m coming back to live here.  And it would be financially easier to leave.  So, here we go.

I’m not real happy with the realtor’s numbers so I called Trelora.  They charge a flat fee for their work, not a commission so I could save a bit of money.  They think I can sell the house for $275,000.  That’s better.  I’m skeptical that buyer’s real estate agents will want to show the house since Trelora is known for offering a low commission to the buyer agent.  However, everyone I’ve talked to at Trelora is upbeat and easy to talk to.  I think I’d like working with them.  They said they could list it quickly even though it’s a bit cluttered right now and they could easily work around my roommate’s schedule.

There is a company in Bali that I am quite impressed with.  They make houses and furniture out of bamboo and are trying to teach people about the sustainability of bamboo.  They are affiliated with a school, a hotel, and a kids camp also.  I researched all the companies and think I would love to work for any of them.  I sent my resume and a letter to Ibuku, Bambu Indah, Green Camp, Green Village, and Green School today.  I feel really drawn to this group of companies.  It would be great to work with them in some way.  I got a standard response that Green Camp receives a lot of applications and they will get back to me.

The realtor I was thinking of using to sell the house said she’s list it for $265,000 with the hopes of selling it for $250,000.  I’m not quite sure what number I was hoping for, but this was not it.  I think I’ll look for another realtor.
