Short Sale! This home was originally listed in 2007 for $899,000 and taken off the market after 140 days at the list price of $849,000. Put back on in February of 2008 for $899,000 and lowered to $849,000 than $839,900 and $799,000-taken off after 216 days. Put back on in June of 2012 for $531,000 and sold for $490,000 in 19 days!!! I really do not understand the pricing of short sales but this was a 4 bedroom, 4 1/2 bath house with a 2 car garage sold "as is". There are some really good deals out there for buyers and lots of houses that are priced fair for today but they do not scream Wow what a deal. If you are looking to buy in the Western Suburbs call me. I have lots of experience and love finding you the right house.
