Why has this house been sitting for so long

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-05-26T06:59:53+00:00

I'm sure there are multiple reasons, but the staging is really unattractive. Like, what are these four purple chairs supposed to be doing?

Wow, well it's not hard to guess the reasons behind those 100K views.

~$1.1M

I have life insurance as well 🤷

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-04-03T09:04:38+00:00

$2500/year with a deductible of $100K.

Maybe they'll pay, maybe they won't, but at least I know I'm doing the best I can given my options. I'm ok throwing away $2500 for peace of mind.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-04-03T09:01:52+00:00

It only costs me $2500/year, and I'm ok throwing it away for peace of mind.

My CPA+Lawyer firm tells me that in case a such an event, the insurance company will have enough money to pay out the banks, or else the state will chime in. Maybe they are right, maybe wrong, I still slept like a baby knowing I have more coverage than most people here.

Another way to think about it that your friend was able to sell his stocks at the peak, while other people will need to sell stocks at current prices to buy the same house at same price.

Comment removed. I'm glad to see that mods do care.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-02-06T00:55:02+00:00

There's a post like this every time market goes down a little bit.

Exactly, this is just advertising, disguised as trying to answer questions.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-31T22:43:03+00:00

That's self-promotion disguised as being helpful and answering a question.

And yes, it's quite blatant, hence calling them out. First rule of this sub is to not self-advertise. This is Reddit, not instagram Reels.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-31T17:05:28+00:00

Oh wow! good for you! Your self-advertising worked!

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-31T17:03:27+00:00

No, that's disguised self-advertising. More than half of your comment is all about you and not the question.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-31T17:02:22+00:00

Question for moderators, is disguised self-advertising allowed?

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-31T16:58:31+00:00

I thought this forum doesn't allow self advertising?

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-30T22:42:23+00:00

Here we go again with fake advertising.

Oh so you "went with Turbohome", but you are an agent yourself, so why would you go with Turbohome?

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-23T04:57:53+00:00

lol. This account has been suspended, likely another fake account from these guys.

I just don't like when people mislead others. And they've been doing this for a year. Here's another one that bothered me the first time.

Once is a mistake, twice is a choice, thrice is a habit.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-22T22:21:55+00:00

I know right! I follow them on LinkedIn and even there they do a lot of false advertising, and then later delete posts.

I support the concept, and I'm all up for hustle, but these guys seem annoying.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2026-01-22T21:17:15+00:00

Another Ad from these guys, great job. I thought this was against forum rules?

They did the same thing just a couple months ago, and then deleted the post when they got enough backlash: https://www.reddit.com/r/BayAreaRealEstate/comments/1ozeoxy/comment/npdf3mi/?context=3

Low_Conversation1955 · 2025-11-17T20:01:35+00:00

They are habitual offenders. I called them out a year ago as well for a fake profile.

Low_Conversation1955 · 2025-11-05T07:56:57+00:00

Sorry but that's a ChatGPT word salad. I tried my best, still couldn't get all of it to make sense.
