I’m sure Lisa will do just fine despite the dire pronouncements of her demise by a group of posters who don’t even know her.

Very weird.

Yes it is. You just know some are rubbing their hands together with glee at the thought. What you see here is exactly how the rumor mill rolls. I'm sure this is part of what factored into her decision to step back and just enjoy her man and her new marrige.

@elated  you are right. It's been on the market for 140 says or so.

 

She first needs a new agent to talk sense into her and reduce the price.

 

This is a beautiful property but in the middle of nowhere.  Her's is the nicest.  Not many well heeled want to live there.


@Pink123  I think the price has actually increased. Lisa's property is currently listed for 4.5 million


It has been listed for 4.5 million since the beginning. She bought the property at a lower price.


I thought I had seen it listed under 4 million but did not recall the exact amount. 

 

It was sold on 3/27/2019 for $1,929,970 but it has been listed since 6/2/23 for $4.5 million.

Out of curiosity, this is the first time I've ever looked at her site.   Nothing of interest to me.   I was surprised to see she's put on a bit of weight since her days at te Q.   It says she's a size 8-10.   She used to be a size 4.  I never realized  she was so busty.


@Teddixat  She is pushing 60.  Unfortunately, most put on weight, heck, the body changes even if the number on the scale doesn't.

Re: Lisa Robertson - Closing her On Line Business

The area where her property is, is a suburb of Philadelphia! It's known as a more upscale area.

Re: Lisa Robertson - Closing her On Line Business

Of course she will be more than fine in her retirement when she sell's that house.  She will come out with millions for old age to live on.

 

She is set for life.  I doubt she has a mortgage on it either.  

 

And no for a property like that the taxes are not high, I agree womeever said it.

Re: Lisa Robertson - Closing her On Line Business

@annie57   Pottstown is not an upscale community. She lives in a rural farming community...mostly dairy farming.

 

The median home value is around $136,000.  However, in recent years, many farms have been sold to developers and new build houses are going for more....mostly in the upper 200's to 300's, though some are in the 500k range.

 

The average household makes $53k.

 

I live in PA and would not want to live in Pottstown.

I feel like a stalker just reading this thread.

 

Cruise, Lisa, cruise and never look back!

@Pink123   She will have a difficult time getting 4.5 million for her place.

 

The previous owner sold the place to Lisa for much less than the listing price and less than they paid for it. It was on the market for 7 years before she bought it.

 

That property is beautiful and desirable, but not in a location where anyone with a million dollars or more to invest in real estate wants to live.

 

It was a poor choice for her to buy that place unless she planned on living and working there for many years.

 

She won't make a dime and it will bleed her dry. I wouldn't want to be in her shoes.

 

I hold a real estate license, in escrow now, and have taken many real estate investment courses, so this is not idle talk.

 

The first thing you are taught in real estate investment is to buy the cheapest, worse house in the best neighborhood and stay away from the best and most expensive house in the neighborhood, or you will not make any money and will likely lose it.

 

Also, it would be really stupid to pay off a mortgage when you have a business property.  You would give up your cash savings and really do need the property as a tax deduction.  

 

You always use other people's money to make money, not your own.

I understand you @Carmie  but I still believe if she get's 2.8 million for the place with all the deductibles she will be fine.  Anyone can retire on 2 million and I'm sure she has other investments.

 

She is no spring chicken either.

 

PS.  Maybe they just want free cruises and to travel the world at their age.  It will last as long as she has a folllowing.

 

I have stated before this will dissipate if she no longer holds a job with visibility. 

 

The cruise lines will not care about Lisa Robertson.

 

Again, best of luck Lisa - lower your price and get out.  A farmer or a quiet sort of person just might purchase it.  But she needs to get realistic.

Re: Lisa Robertson - Closing her On Line Business

@Carmie  this is off topic but being a realtor for a few years myself I noticed that people think their homes are the absolute best.

 

You can talk about comparable's that sold around their home, condo but they still have a better place. lol.
