Reduced the price by $1K

The house

Why waste their/our time? The house is priced at least $100K too high. In my opinion it makes them look pathetic. Your thoughts?

Look again, they reduced the price by $1, not $1k.

Feb 16, 2009 Price Changed $1,098,999 -- SoCalMLS #S548540

Jan 12, 2009 Price Changed $1,099,000 -- SoCalMLS #S548540

As for why they bothered? Well, empirical evidence would suggest that people think that $1,098,999 is much lower than $1,099,000 than it really is...

Why bother? Just because you pointed it out shows it gets some attention.

Sold for $360k in 1998...I guess it's tripled in value in ten years. Only in Irvine...

To truly be an "only in Irvine" story, it would have to be a short sale after tripling in price in ten years...
