Yeah, right.

Sorry for the paucity of posts this week, Gang. But I've been otherwise occupied with a new job.
But enough about me, let's talk about sellers.

Today, I received a comment on my post: "Oddity on Sunswept." That's a post about a house that is listed for $750k despite the fact that it was last purchased at $2M. The MLS description indicates geological damage.

The commenter just wants us to know that he spent a lot of money on a geological survey, and he personally inspected the home, and that even with repairs the home is priced about $400k below market. Despite his incredible investment of time and money, and despite his determination that this property is a great deal, he does not appear to be buying this home. Gosh, I wonder why he wanted to let us all know what a great deal it is? Could it be that he is, in fact, the seller?

UPDATE: He came back to let me know that he is bidding! On this great bargain! Wow! How generous of him to share this tip with us when he is bidding himself!

Excuse me while I laugh 'til it hurts.

Check out the comments on "Oddity on Sunswept" for yourself.

Cheers!
