AND IT WENT FOR - 190 Forest Hill Road - FOREST HILL

I first posted this 5+1 bedroom, 8 bathroom house on a 45 x 191.5 foot lot at 190 Forest Hill Road in April 2012.

But it had been listed since 2011, when the asking price was $6,495,000 (unless it never sold in 2008 when it was listed for $5,950,000).

It never sold for $6.5 in 2011 and the price was dropped to $5,998,000.

It is a nice house with some great art, but $6 million!?!

When the price was dropped in May 2012, 3 weeks after I posted the house, the price was changed to $5,680,000.

It didn't sell and the house was brought back on the market in November 2012 at an increase!  

The new price was $5,950,000.

Unsurprisingly, it didn't sell and the price was dropped in December to $5,749,000.  Guess what!  It didn't sell.

Well, looks like I missed another price INCREASE because this house was relisted in July 2013 for $5,895,000.

It has finally sold...

 For $5,268,000.

Considering that it is $1,227,000, or 23%, less than the initial asking price, not great for the owners...

My guess in May 2012?

$5,200,000.
