Hi there,
I`m new to REIN and live in BC. My folks live in the east part of Scarborough Ontario (nice part of Scarborough) and have had their house listed for over 90 days with no success. I have a few questions:
1. They just signed another 90 day contract with their realtor. Are they able to break this somehow? I think they need someone better.
2. Any suggestions for great realtors in this region?
3. House has good curb appeal, nice landscaping, great presentation inside with pretty good updates (2-storey), except for the basement. It is unfinished. Concrete walls and floors. Ugly and uninteresting of sorts, but clean and dry. Concrete walls have been patched in two areas where old leaks were, but has been fine since. My thoughts are that finishing the basement would be important. Would others agree? Would finishing it completely be important or just even roughing in drywall, ceiling and flooring to provide a basis for someone else to put their own ideas into it. Would one pull the house off the market to finish this?
4. Any other thoughts? I think the price might be a bit high, ($10-20 K), but not excessive, but I haven`t really researched this.
Thanks!
