No. It's a carrot. The true offer probably is below the lowest of the range. My curiosity is not piqued.

Sure! The little time investment could be a great educational tool for your sphere and your peers. What scam are they pulling? What happens when you commit? Get answers!

I see great value in responding - if it's real and the high end of the range is something that would make you sell, great. If it's a scam, it's a teachable moment for your peeps!

If it's an email, it's likely to be deleted.  If sent by mail, it would be found in the circular file.  A phone call would lead to that number being blocked at minimum.

No... not interested in selling. I know that value of my home... don't need someone else's opinion. No time to deal with such things when I have no interest in selling. To me that's junk mail... why would I respond to it any more than I'd respond to any other junk mail?

Annette Lawrence,

No, it goes directly to the junk box. Any serious buyer would call and send on proper paperwork. Funny thing, I get mail on a regular basis, people or so call companies wanting to buy my mother's home on another city. It goes straight to the shredder, too busy for junk mail or email.

We see variable range pricing here in San Diego all the time and have for years...not sure how well it actually works and it confuses buyers. Never saw it for an offer. Guess you could respond and see what happens - perhaps buyer and seller can reach agreement.
