When I was 16, I spent a lot of time looking for a forest green 1964-1968 Mustang. That was the dream car. I put a lot of hours into the Seattle Times, The Little Nickel, and other local auto publications. I also looked at many other cars trying to find a compromise. That
compromise ended up being a 1980 Honda Civic, hatchback with poor brakes that I purchased for $500 from a coworker at the local movie theater. Not quite a forest green 1964 Mustang, but with much better emissions and mileage (oh and it was really good in the snow but that’s a story for another day).
While there was something I wanted out there, there was also something I could afford and that was practical for me. As I spent all that time perusing the paper, I skipped over 1,000’s of listings of cars that did not display the price. Because truth-be-told, no matter how much I wanted that Mustang, I was limited by a budget. I would not waste my time if the car was outside of my range. In addition the car may sound great on paper but if it was 3 times what I wanted to spend it wasn’t worth looking at.
I understand that prices may change, there are reductions, but I at least need to know we that we might be able to dance. If you want me to take a look at the ad, or the flyer you are sending out to me, are advertising a listing, as an agent, and as a buyer, please always include our price.

Caleb,
As an Agent, I have heard comments for and against displaying the price. However, as a Homebuyer - I appreciate having the price right there. No need to make several phone calls that might be for nothing - due to a budget...
Caleb,
Thanks for the post. I never understood the practice of omitting the price. As has been stated we all shop for just about everything based upon the price.
Rich, wow, I'd have loved to of seen that!
Sharon, I think it it is also a disservice to the sellers.
Devon, yes very much into winter sports! Sun Valley last week, Durango next.
