I just drove by our house a few days ago and saw that our neighbors at 403 is selling their house. My grandfather says they are asking $304,000 which I think is WAY overpriced. Our other neighbor on the opposite corner had a really hard time selling theirs at $250,000.
This is a great house with a lot of potential but appears none of it has been upgraded. Floors in good shape and I know they've worked hard to restore the molding to its original finish and patch all of the plaster, but the kitchen is a disaster. Old tile on the floor, old tile on the counters, needs updated appliances... and the house in general needs to be staged.
But its a good old house. I particularly love the authentic art deco bathroom. I left them a comment because most people would renovate and make it into a beige wonderland but I'm glad they left it in keeping with the time of the house.

I am the owner of the house. How could you possibly write anything about our home as, to my knowledge, you have never been in it. The information you put on the blog is terribly inaccurate. You apparently have not taken the time to look at all the pictures or the new sales price. Your comments are slanderous and may have impacted our ability to sell it.
Readers: if you want the truth about our home, just call me at (405) 830-2994. I don't know who Sarah Burris is but she is full of crap and owes me an apology.
I wrote this post over a year ago based on the photos on the website and the work that you told us has been done. Others who would like to view the photos can do so at the links above and decide for themselves or consult with a local Realtor or professional decorator.
