The action
This detached house has a standard back-split plan spanning four levels, plus a finished basement.Forest Hill Real Estate Inc.
This back-split house on a 50- by 133-foot lot preserves its original 1960s design and decor. The dated look was was not disincentive to builders and renovators who were confident they could rebuild the property and turn a profit upon resale. Within 48 hours of its coming to market in mid-March, four offers had been made, with the sellers accepting one that added $26,000 to the asking price.
“There was no offer date, so we weren’t pricing it for multiple offers,” said agent Michael Steinman. “But I did price it at the lower end of what the value was.”
“[In mid-March], there also wasn’t much else [buyers] could chose from.”

“The lots there are really good sizes.”
