When I saw this feedback I didn't even pay attention to it. Then my realtor called me and made it a big deal and keeps insisting we should take it seriously, go check house and then make a call. Is this just another tactics of pushing your client to lower the sell price or target sell price etc? I guess these days you can't trust noone, there isn't really MY realtor concept, it is just a selling agent and these probably are ONLY interested closing the deal ASAP for whatever it takes, just like there is no such thing as buyer's realtor, it is just the other's side of agent, and they too are JUST interested in closing the deal ASAP for whatever it takes.

My realtor is somehow making this feedback a big deal as if we BETTER take into considerations prospective buyers comments.
I feel this to be bit unfair. Yes the house WILL show some usage marks, it is NOT brand new never lived in, so would you expect ABSOLUTE zero wear and tear on the house?
I am really puzzled.

A house is ONLY two years old, after closing from builder took my time to do all 30-90 day small fixups with builder before renting it out. The house WAS tenanted 1.5 years ONLY.
After tenants were out replaced carpet and put a new hardwood floors throughout. Repainted the entire house.

I went through the house again what can be replaced those minor things here and there and in my mind calculated what it costs on the market to have it done (I am currently doing my basement in another home I own so kind of know the current costs). And all these minor things that I could find replaced, repainted (say i didn't repaint exterior front porch columns, that has a little paint chipped, yes that can be painted) fixed etc still won't amount more than few thousand dollars. It is really puzzling what stops prospective buyer to make an offer having in mind this (substract and make an offer if you are interested) instead of just making comments that "your house isn't maintained well and needs lots of work".

2. The above mentioned property was inspected and verified that was NOT used as a grow op. Tenants used to smoke weed.

Does this answer your question?
