Dude has lost more than 200k. Have to factor in buy and sell fees, taxes and insurance they've been paying, any repairs, costs to move there, etc.

Seems odd to list it for lower than you paid so soon.

Makes me think he’s trying to set up a bidding war and will only accept an offer over $1.4 million.

Maybe he moved the doublewide off and now it is just the lot.

Not saying this is what happened, but I bought a property a few years back for 500k and was able to subdivide it into 3 lots, sold the original property for 450k after some renovation, and built two more for a really good ROI.

I have to believe if you can come up with 1,113,000 you can find another 7k. That must be how you bump a listing to the top of the mls search engine.

It was a good time to sell. We are entrenched in Grassland for school and sports for the next decade. A couple of those big farmhouses on Old Natchez are coming along pretty nice.

the person who bought our house won't get to say to the next buyer: "Hey Miley Cyrus is your neighbor". Instead he'll say "The Fast Food Magnate of Minnesota lives here."

Doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

Other than the shitty interest rates it's a buyers market

He didn’t lose money. He shot his shot.

He never had 1.4 M if nobody was offering to buy it for that.

June was the end of the sellers market and the beginning of the buyers market

Also a way to turn $1.4M in dirty money into $1.1M of clean money.

I'm sure that sounded like a zinger in your head.
