1500 Termon is on a street where the speed limit is 25 and drivers regularly do 40-50. I once had to pick some stuff up from a neighbor on that street and backing out of their driveway was one of the most terrifying driving maneuvers I’ve ever had to do in my life. It’s like backing out into McKnight Rd. Also the next door neighbors have the loudest dogs I’ve ever heard in my life and let them outside most of the day when the weather is nice.

1825 Kleber has been off-and-on the market since early 2020 when we bought our house. It was full of outdated finishes and carpet from the 1970s that was probably harboring its own ecosystem. They eventually pulled it off the market and spent over a year doing minor cosmetic improvements, basically putting lipstick on a pig, and then relisted it asking probably $50k more than it was worth (at the time; prices have since fallen). As a matter of fact the house next door, of similar size, sold for $15k more last summer in a matter of days. Because it’s actually worth it.

The reason these houses are still sitting is because they’re asking way too much money for what they are.
