This came up during a conversation with another agent about how a very large house he has listed (more than 10,000 sf) gets no showings. None, zippo. And, not surprisingly, he doesn’t have much hope of selling it. But that’s not surprising either.
Really big houses just aren’t all that popular in the foothills. That’s what buyers are telling us. Looking back 5+ years to January 2006, just two homes over 10,000 sf have sold in the foothills. That’s it.
And one of them was the Javelina Dr house, the house in Skyline CC (10,901 sf) that after seven years on the market finally sold a few months ago through foreclosure for $1,850,000 ($170/sf), which was about $350k more than I thought they’d get.
Or should get.

On the other hand, if you are in the market for 10,000 sf, there are only 4 to choose from in the foothills > for sale over 10,000 sf < but still, I imagine you oughta be able to drive a pretty hard bargain
