Because price is so important to making a good first impression on the buyers, it would make sense to make it attractive….and realistic. This price sounds like a mistake – or a joke.
P.S. Former owner paid $898,500 in 2005 and financed 100%.

"Jim the Realtor is legit - I interviewed three brokers; he said list price should be $100,000 higher than the other two brokers; listed it with him and had all cash (no financing) offer in two days, five day contingency period, closing in two weeks - and it closed at his recommended list price. I could not recommend anyone more than I recommend Jim the Realtor. more "

"When we moved to San Diego in 2005 we rented a big house on Mt. Soledad (La Jolla) with 180 degree ocean views for the same payment as a mortgage on a dump in Chula Vista. Clearly something was wrong. Yet, the media was full of the usual happy-talk nonsense, so I was glad to find Jim's blog. I've followed his honest assessments and data since. more "

"Where do we begin..2020 has been a year for everyone. When COVID hit and shut down both my husband and my businesses, we were left with a mortgage and very little income coming in. We were stressed, scared and felt stuck. We made the hard decision to sell our home and move out of state. We contacted the Klinges' and spent a good hour going over what we hoped we could accomplish. Jim and Donna came over with comps in hand and suggestions on improvements to get our house ready for the market. It was overwhelming to think about, but Donna was there and one step ahead in every scenario. more "

"Jim and Donna Klinge made the sale of our condo extraordinarily easy. They know the market and gave us sound advice backed by details and very considerable experience, reflected both in the initial pricing and subsequent negotiations. They work together as a team and are always available to talk. more "

"I cannot believe there are no reviews of Donna yet, ugh!! She is the secret sauce of the Jim Klinge/Donna Klinge combo! I will touch on Jim here, but Donna is why I'm so totally loyal to these two (no offense to Jim :)).

"Jim and Donna Klinge are by far the most professional, personable and responsive realtors I have ever worked with. They provide VIP concierge level service in every area of the process of selling your home. My home was marketed so successfully that we received an offer the day after our first and only open house. Thanks to Jim's pricing and negotiating, our house is now the highest sold in our community... more "

when I see an unrealistic price on a house I automatically think scam and stay away.
Auction.com business model is the fake lowball opening bid to generate more bidders. Has been since day 1. The auctioneer typically bids on behalf of the beneficiary alongside those at the auction until they get passed the reserve price. It is funny to have 4 people actively bidding on a property up to a point only to have the gavel fall and its announced “back to the beneficiary”.
Haven’t heard the background chirpies for a while 😉
I learned the hard way with Auction.com, and I wonder how many others, like myself, won`t go anywhere near it.
Notes about this house/sale on the auction.com website:
“One Time Only Auction”
“Bank-approved short sale” but according to foreclosureradar they did complete the trustee sale in Jan 2012. Former owner must have fought it?
“Buyer’s Premium” = 5% of winning bid, but a big turnoff to buyers. They should get the sellers to pay.
Online auction begings 8/29 is concludes 9/1 – I have to remember to come back and see how it turned out.
