This home was listed in August for $2,895,000 with a different Compass agent who had lowered the price down to $2,500,000 by October 6th but then cancelled.
The new listing agent started on December 1st at $2,749,000, and sixteen days later found the buyer. It sold for $2,715,000:
Wow, that’s a bad look for the first agent.
Sometimes it’s hard to quantify the value of a good salesperson.
In this case its not.
The sale was assisted when this smaller neighboring house listed for sale at a higher price – which has a $180,000 backyard:

But if you don’t need the flagpole and portable spa, take the bigger house at a slightly reduced price. The buyer did.
