Great questions all.

Craigslist - yes I am getting a fair amount of traffic on my site from craigslist (mostly on my listing on 162 Bobcat Lane), but no closings yet purely because of it. I have only been on Craigslist a couple of weeks, though. As someone trying to sell things, I am more interested in closings (and what leads to them) than I am in idle traffic. I post only on Montgomery, as it is the largest city by the Lake. Who knows, maybe I should post elsewhere, too. I am so new to craigslist, it is an experiment at this point. If I don't get any closings from it soon, I will prob. move on to something else.

10 Lakewood Road- Short answer - nothing is wrong with it.

Long answer - the lot is great. Awesome view, not steep, plenty (110 ft) of waterfront. Click on the link below for the listing info, and click on the "TAX MAP" link under the Other Information section. You can see it's a great lot, great view. No, it doesn't have 500 feet of wf, but if it did it would be $895,000 instead of $495k. Stop dreaming. But, I defy anyone to show me a better 3/2 on this side of the lake on a deeded wf single family home with a view like this for under 500. The owners are great, and priced it according to what will sell it NOW, instead of counting on another 30% market increase this summer. As I have said on this forum, a lot of wf things are overpriced, but this one ain't. I realize this will sound like typical "realtor puffery" - until you check it out.

Another huge selling point is that it has been totally remodeled and updated. The owners were smart in that they hired a skilled, creative contractor to do the work - **then got the heck out of the way and let him do it** The result was a nice rustic, open ceiling, exposed beam, big tile, "cabin-y" look that is perfect for the home. Again, I can practically hear people's eyes rolling as they read this, but check out my link or drive by and see if I am exaggerating.

But - this is one of those that I call "regret homes" because people will regret not buying it. They'll drive by it and tell their kids "dang it, we could have bought that house back in 07, but we didn't. If I'da known then what I know now..." That's why I have been busier than a one legged ... well, I've been busy .. showing it. I have several really interested buyers. Anyone out there better call ME now if interested.

Thanks for the questions, sorry to gush so much, but, 10 Lakewood is a good one and that's just a fact.
