It is totally Edwardian looking! I LOVE IT! Thanks for posting that schoolhouse!!

The next meeting will be Wed, August 19th. I will be their guest speaker. The topic will be "Growing Tropical Fruits and Other Edibles". Christine

Well, my realtor seems to be a Monday to Friday guy. He's a Remax Agent, and in the top 50 negotiators for Canada, but he specializes in commercial real estate, though he's sold many houses in his day. He was referred to us by a friend, and he was happy to list our house, but I'm starting to realize there's a difference between commercial and residential agents. This guy takes off for the cottage on Friday and is gone all weekend. I'm guessing this is why he's not wanting to do an open house. We might have to re-think our agent. Sweet_tea, I know.. I didn't want to draw attention to it either, and I was hoping - being June - people weren't thinking about shoveling snow. But, they're obviously thinking it anyway when they see the sidewalk, because that has been our only negative feedback on the house (corner lot, too much grass to cut/sidewalk to shovel). Well, we watched our neighbours get an offer on their house last night. They had a showing, the people were in there for a long time, they all came out and the agent was still writing the offer on a clipboard. He went to his car and made a phonecall, and told the buyers "I'll let you know when we have an offer". From what I can tell they're still going ahead with their open house today. It could have been a conditional offer, or a lowball. Who knows. I don't get it. We just reduced 10K, and they're listed for what we originally listed for. It's pretty much the same house, only they don't have the finished basement or 4th bathroom that we have. What they do have is a pie-shaped lot in the middle of the court and a nice backyard/deck. If I knew trying to sell a corner lot was going to be this difficult, I would never have bought this place! I guess the good part about this is we'll now be the only house in the neighbourhood for sale *sigh*

As no such 'Suggestions' forum exists in the Home Forums index, it might be nice to introduce that topic, and also introduce a Website comments and feedback forum as well!
