I agree. You can do alot with a house with good bones. Like @Baymule said, you just need to factor that into it when you negotiate the purchase price.

Well... until the owner answers his/her phone, it's really a moot point! I mean if you're serious about selling, you'd think you'd want to be able to be contacted, right?

 

[Devonviolet]

One would think . . . but, there you go, being logical!

Maybe they aren't in a hurry . . . or decided not to sell, and forgot to remove the listing. OOORRRRR . . . listed it with a realtor & the changes haven't made it to Realtor.com.

I can't imagine trying to sell a property as FSBO from out of state. It's just crazy to do that!

Hey! I just had a thought! If you click on "More Info" it will take you to a list of realtors at the bottom of the page. I wonder if one of them could figure out how to contact the seller???

 

[Baymule]

I looked it up on trulia and at the bottom is 3 realtors listed, might want to give them a call. Same ones are listed on Zillow.

Yeah, the problem with that is those folks are listed on the site for advertising purposes. So if they end up helping me, they're going to want a commission and if the FSBO seller isn't picking it up, then I have to pay it out of pocket.

Those aren't horse stalls...they are kidding stalls. Silly boy...stalls are for goats.

Yes on commission deal.......yes on horse boarding can be a PIA as well as a lot of work -- either owners are there up your ahmmm or never show, then there is payment issue..... raise chicks instead.

Also, so many of us "retired" to work harder and harder

I also see "enabler" tendancy showing up -- -- in these posts.

In FL there was a property selling with the living quarter IN the barn. Now it was a wonderful barn and quarters were for farm mgr but, no house had ever been built. You can live in it especially when goats are kidding, etc.

Contact the county, give them the address and maybe they will give you the name and mailing address of the owner. With name and address, look 'em up on facebook. Property ownership is public knowledge.
