Tuesday Trinity: Why Won’t This Sell Edition

The Bella Vista home has been waiting for a buyer since 2012.

Keeping in mind that the listing photos are from a previous occupant and not the current one, we still wonder why this South Philly house hasn’t been taken off the market yet. It’s a cute trinity, it’s in a pretty sweet location and the kitchen has been recently updated.

So what’s the problem? The home was listed for $325,000 in August 2012, but was removed the following February. It was listed again this June and had its price reduced to $310,000 a few months later. Will it disappear from the market again if no one expresses interest?

Here, let’s give it a boost (pay attention, potential home buyers!): As already mentioned, the home has a newly refurbished kitchen with maple cabinets, but it also offers updated bathrooms, hardwood floors and recessed lighting throughout, and, like most trinities, a single bedroom. In this case, it’s on the third level (second level has an open den) and has its own little deck.

The basement is used for storage.
