How Can We Sell Our Custom Log Home
By: Kathy | 01-08-2008
We have a custom-built log home in Southern NJ for sale that has been on the market since September 2006. Last July, we moved from  NJ to NorthCentral PA for a variety of reasons, and our home in NJ still has not sold. We are aware that a log home appeals only to a limited group of buyers, and we are painfully aware of the dismal housing market. However, this home is a real find; it sits on 11 acres of wooded land, and boasts an in-law suite, as well as 5 bedroom, and 3 1/2 baths. It was built in 1989, and is in very good condition. How can we target an audience that would be interested in this home? Any and all suggestions are welcome.
