Driving through town this afternoon, I ran across this sign …
First, the size of the sign was shocking, but then when I looked at it further I realized I had never seen one of
these in town before … at least, not since I started in real estate nearly five years ago. Has the foreclosure wave finally hit Blacksburg?
I doubt it.
We’ve seen foreclosures in other areas of the New River Valley, and it’s not necessarily an unusual occurrence. Why won’t this home sell?
- 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, 2304 square feet
- built in 2000
- hardwood and tile floors
- gas fireplace
- full walkout basement
- Mountain views
I don’t have the answer about why the home hasn’t sold. When it was listed, it was listed for $350000.
That’s not a bad price, and I listed and sold the house directly across the street for $355000. Seems like a good value, what’s the problem? But if you’re interested in taking a look, let me know and we’ll go together.
