When we went out on family walks, I would talk to people, says Dave DeYoung. I d say, Do you know anyone who s looking to sell? We were just out getting to know the neighborhood, but basically, I was prospecting.
It worked. Earlier this year, the DeYoungs bought a five-bedroom Prairie Style house on Damen Avenue for $490,000. The sellers, who declined to comment for this story, didn t have to do any premarket painting, install air conditioning or pay agents commissions. The DeYoungs got a pre-pandemic price, Dave says, and sidestepped the hassle of bidding wars.
In a real estate market filled with frustrations lost bidding wars, sharply rising prices and a dearth of inventory among them buyers like the DeYoungs are trying to jump the line.
