Buying For Sale By Owner Real Estate in Olive Branch Mississippi
- Real Estate Relocation
See the AskMe Feature Below.
“For Sale By Owner” homes very often overpriced
No-one denies that, on occasion, you can negotiate directly with the sellers and save money. However, most buyers assume that if they buy directly from an owner they will get a lower price. Since the owners wouldn’t have to pay a commission, they could pass along their savings to the buyers. But why would they want to? Most sellers don’t take on the burden and expense of selling their own home so they can give buyers a better price. They do it to pocket more money for themselves. Olive Branch real estate sellers are no different!
In fact, as often as not, people selling their own homes overprice them. They’re hoping to find some “bargain-hunting” buyers who will be hoodwinked into believing they are saving money because there’s no agent involved. In addition, even if the home appears to be priced right, it may suffer from hidden defects. Buyers moving in from out of town to Olive Branch Mississippi are the most vulnerable to assessing the value of For Sale By Owners. The home may be a steal compared to house prices in their home town, but may not be a good deal here in Olive Branch Mississippi.

What is now the downtown area of Olive Branch was purchased by Milton Blocker and Stephen Flinn more than a century and a half ago, on April 13, 1836, from Chickasaw Indian Chief Lush-Pum-Tubby. The 1,280 acres were purchased for $1.20 per acre. The town was originally known as Cowpens, named for the cow pens that lined the primary road. The town was later renamed to Watson's Crossroads in honor of Sam Watson, a Methodist minister at Methodist Church of Olive Branch. This church, originally founded in 1840, is now known as Maples Memorial Methodist Church. In 1846, the town gets its first Post Office and changes its name to Olive Branch. 29 years later, on May 1, 1875, the area composed of 150 people was formally incorporated as Olive Branch. The first mayor of Olive Branch was Ben Wesson. In 1875, he constructs a new home, what is now known as Wesson House. -- Source: Wikipedia.com
