What Is a Good Tulsa Neighborhood?

[tim huntzinger]

County Assessor said $210.  Just got an offer for $205. Our intitial asking price was $250.  Been on the market for a year. We bought five years ago at $170 and put $11 in.  Would that be worth your effort?

I think your response was directed at me but I'm not sure what you're asking...

If you're complaining about the time to sell, your home was obviously either priced too high or it didn't show well.  Without seeing it and the comps in your specific area, I have no idea which one it was...

Aren't you glad you live in Tulsa?[]

Could be the market isn't as strong as the realtors would like you to believe or...you paid too much.

Just look at the bright side,   Since the Assessor values your  house at $210 your are entitled to the 5% mandatory increase in the assessed value to where the new value will be $220+ which makes it an automatic increase for buyers, who are standing in line wanting the cheap real-estate in T-town with a new arena.

h2O I think it was a problem with the listing realtor, they focus on Owasso and North county.  Props to them, though, I think we have a buyer!

Here it is, or was, thank goodness!

$100 a square foot ain't bad.

2,100 square feet on a .22 acre lot...you must have the smallest backyard...

Nice home. Glad its working out. So are you now selling out to the burbs?

[tim huntzinger]

I would rather have pins under my fingernails during a conversation with RWarn than live in the burbs!  Better to be forced to drink chewin tobacco juice listening to Cannon Fodder drone on than live in the wasteland of burbia! I would rather have the Artist paint a portrait of me on far than live in the hinterland!

I take back all the nasty things I said about T-Town.  Lookin in the Whiteside Park area, Patrick Henry district, actually.  So if you have kinfolk in the area, better warn em.
