There's actually 2 homes, a few doors down from each other. One my husband found online, called an agent, and asked to see it. I didn't see it. This other agent was referred by my bank, I talked to her, told her we like a certain neighborhood. She called Sunday morning saying there had been a new listing, asked if we wanted to see it. Turns out just a few homes down from the one my hubby saw. So I said yes, and asked if we could see the one I hadn't seen yet.
Homes are the exact same floor plan, but the one my husband saw w/ another agent has a remodeled kitchen (I don't really like the remodeled kitchen) and more updates (newer HVAC, water heater, windows, doors, to name a few) and a fully finished basement. Same listing agent on both homes. Price is only $2k difference. But the one without updates is a better lot. We would be happy with either, its just a matter of which one we can get a better deal on. We can probably negotiate more on the one without all the updates. Anyway, I need someone that can negotiate and that has our interests in mind. The agent has already been pushing me towards the one with all the updates, even though I said several times that I liked the other one. Not sure if its her agenda, or if she personally thinks its a better deal.
Anyway, just vetting... I want to make sure my husband and I do whats right and get the best deal.
