Riverside Contract

41 Jones Park Drive, listed for $5.995 million, is under contract. Good address and the house is nice, but nicer still is to see something moving in the $6 range. I recall beating Timmy Conway’s father in billiards at this house, long ago, when it was just a mere hint of the house it was to become. I can’t say I’ve noticed the same improvement in either myself or my pool game, but what the heck.

    This is an impressive sale for Riverside. It is a great house in a great location, but this is still a big price for Riverside in this market. Encouraging.

    Did the sellers get their asking price or did they accept a lower offer? It sounds like asking from your post, but not sure.

      I’d guess they got somewhere near their asking price, New Buyer, but we won’t know until the actual sale is reported. Generally, if a house sells within a few months of it being listed, I wouldn’t expect to see a huge discount. But you never know – there are exceptions.
