Our house didn't sell

June 8th, 2009 at 12:00 pm

I've been away for a really long time. I wanted to give you an update since my last blog. Well, on April 1st we put our rental property on the market to sale. I've sold three of our homes before, but this is a different economy and market. After two months showing the house three times, and getting around eight phone calls, we put it on the market to rent.

I put the ad on Craigslist, and got my first call within two minutes, literally. After that I showed the house almost daily. It was rented in three weeks. I'm not mad!

I know the ecomomy will change, and our home will be worth even more. Which means we'll have a bigger paycheck from the sale. You can't get discouraged, frustated, or defeated with the economic climate. Just go with the flow and be patient.

Are you trying to sell or rent? How's it going for you?

    We became landlords since a house we purchased with OD did not sell after she finished college. Luckily we have great tenants!

    Thank god my rentals are filled. I don't know what I would do without my stable renters. One has been there 7 years, the others are going into their 2nd year of living at the property. I am very blessed.
