Had a new customer scheduled for Monday morning. The house is a 3,934 square foot, 5.0 bathroom, single family home. Sold in 2003 for $1,200,000 according to Zillo. The lady called me yesterday and left a message "that after thinking about it, my price was too high and way more than what they paid last time." At first I was going to call back and see if there was a compromise price we could agree on, but stopped myself because it is a somewhat difficult residence to do. Two story, larger than standard windows, with minimum cut ups of 3 to 4 panes on some, and up to 12 and 15 panes on others. The front windows have an arbor to try and navigate, and front patio is ladder difficult. 49 windows, 7 doors with an average price of $6.00 each for outside clean only.
Just crazy. $318.00, outside only, ladder work, front half difficult to manage, house is worth 1.27 million on today's real estate markety analysis and they are squalking about the high side of $300? I was almost moved to reduce my price but no! I'll just look for a replacement job and feel comfortable with my pricing for the quality of work I deliver each and every time.
Okay. End of rant. Thanks for letting me vent! :-)
