Today in the mail there was this small pamphlet from a real estate agent advertising that a house near the end of the block is currently up for sale. The price seems pretty good too at an asking price of about $610,000. The interesting thing was that apparently they tried to ell it for about $800,000 before.
One interesting factor about this house though is that a person died in it through natural causes, the original owner, and because of that a lot of people refuse to buy it with the fear that it would create bad luck to them. As a result, I wouldn’t be surprised if the offers will be significantly less than the asking price in order to sell it.
I know for some people even if you say broke the whole house down and literally just created a new one they would still not want to live on that property if they know there was a death there. Would you let superstitious things like that stop you from making a purchase that would make perfect financial sense?
