I just don't get why they wouldn't budge on the price just to be free of them. They truly are white elephant properties at those prices.
Friends of mine here in Dallas, Texas put their Preston Hollow home up for sale for almost 10 years before it sold at the price they wanted. They were offered $1.5 million, but stuck to their guns and got $3.2 million. Patience does reward the patient.
