The other day, I submitted an offer on a house that was in the mid 100k. A couple days later, the listing price went up by almost another 100k. The house is a short sale. Any idea what the deal with this is? I was also told that the sellers did not want to show the house anymore untill after the holidays. Im just curious on why a decision like this is made...

Maybe they are getting greedy since they are getting offer(s?)?

My realtor spoke to theres, but it seemed as though she could not get any straight answers... The offer I put in was 150k asking was 165. Homes of that style have been going around 180 in a private sale. I was notified that in the township of Oxford, the house is valued at 170k which is the same as the zestimate on zillow (but taken with a grain of salt). The new price is 254k! Also, my realtor said that it is not a short sale any more?? The only thing we can think of is that the price is jack way up because they dont want to show it? It just seems kinda skeptical in my opinion...

Guess the sellers really want to meake sure it DOES NOT sell. It is still a buyers market, so there is bound to be another property--may be even a better deal?
