Mr. Rossen,

Now that it's your money instead of someone else's money, what say you?

There are too many holes in Stan's brief synopsis which makes it apples to oranges.

Throw in the fact that no one else wants to buy my house.

Throw in the fact that if I don't this, the only offer, I will have no value in my house in only a few years.

Throw in the fact that my house is "rotting" as Jim puts it.

Throw in all the factors and it's a deal.

Or, I go against it and don't take the only available option on the table, knowing that my house will have no value shortly and refuse the deal with "the hypothetical hope that something may come along if my prayers are answered, but knowing that nothing will really come along...because nothing came only now and my house is only "rotting" more in the years to come - then it will be even less attractive to the people who already were not interested now.

I would rather be assured that I have something in place now than take a chance, with less to offer, in the future when no one is interested now. If people were interested now, I would have a better offer than Stan's $9K.

You have a wonderful house, I believe the comment comes after you were talking about the tree.

Carry on.

Don't deflect. You said you would like to see the hospital rot. In this example the house is the hospital. I can't believe I have to explain this to you.

But all of your assumptions are not true, your house is worth $180K the hospital $180M.

Name one person who wants to buy your house (without putting it on the market or listing it) besides Stan?

Go ahead, just sell it to Stan, nobody else wants it.

$9K on $180K seems to be the going rate/ratio in Lakewood.

Maybe I am reading into your response wrong, but it sounds like you agree with me.

Nobody else stepped up to want the house. If I wait, nobody will still want it, but then it would be worth zero.

I'm guessing if we agree, I am reading into your response wrong.

You're wrong--nobody was asked--no marketing or listing.

Name the names of who wants your house. Go!

No one wants my house but Stan. People have stepped up to the plate but have backed down and gone away.

In the end, the only one who is willing to pay for my house is Stan.

If Stan is the only person who wants my house, why would I turn him down knowing that:
No one stepped up and wanted my house now except Stan, even less will want it in the future.
My house needs work now, and will need substantially more in the years to come.
The value of my house now is what it is now, and knowing it will depreciate to zero in the near future, I stand to gain more now.
Knowing all of this, it is in my best interest to know that I am making the best deal for my house, and it looks even better considering what the future holds for the depreciation down to zero.

If I do not sell my house now knowing all of this above, what is my plan to gain in the future? What are the assured tangibles? Go!

I'll buy the house for $8999, with the following conditions: it comes with all the contents, I take possession of it tomorrow, it comes with a demolition permit, and you can entertain no other offers.

Did you really think this through, or just want to jump in? As a general rule of thumb, offers do not come in late, underbid, overdemand and expect to be taken seriously. Next.

With your scenario, I already have a better offer from Stan, though yours is the only other offer ever made. So I am taking Stan's over yours.

You did act in a timely or professional manner in response to Stan, so he retracted his offer, which he'll tell you by letter in a couple of weeks. So I now have the only offer. I'm down to $8600.

Seriously, this is what you come up with? You are ruining the conversation.

If, like you, I can make up stuff that does not fit into this conversation and/or scenario...my house is sold to Lebron James for top dollar, the money is sitting pretty in my bank account, he then who decides to renovate it, update it, all new appliances, full court in the backyard (with basketball friendly neighbors, of course) and give it back to me as unicorns fly away into the sunset.

C'mon man, you are ruining the digital fence.

But wait, the Lakewood Health and Wellness Foundation, Inc., (Metro) a charity that is better at helping the poor than your friend Stan (CCF), hereby offers to invest over ten times what Stan has offered, we'll build a new kitchen, new baths, new garage and install a state of the art jacuzzi, and you can live there for life enjoying all of this with the beneficiaries of JFF included. If you don't like that offer, just tell me what you do want because I really want to help you and the children JFF helps (Metro's offer).

Oh, you say you don't want "people like LHWF" (Metro) in your neighborhood and you sent Stan and his political allies to tell me to back off its his turf?

Okay, I'll go away, but what will you say to the JFF children?

Oh, I see you say "We're Gonna be Great Again" "You're Gonna Make It All Great"

Just tell me how to vote, I am confused.

Metro offer never made it to the table because they backed away. Nobody else has even approached the table. Values continue to depreciate. The only offer still stands as Stan's. Pipe dream what you will, there is only, and always has been only, one offer on the table.

"What if" doesn't cut it, money on the table. Nobody else will to put money on the table, my property is decreasing in value to the point of zero - Stan wins.

The offers that are coming up here are all "what if" scenarios - these "what ifs" are actually "never was" cases. One offer on the table, decreasing value, no one else will offer better in the future due to decreasing value...c'mon, stop with the "what ifs" - your "what ifs" show the fact that there is no plan ahead for you other than praying on a "what if" that won't happen.
