268 Round Hill Road closed yesterday at $3.4 million. A November contract, the property was listed at $4.1 last June. The sellers paid $4.6 for it in 2008.

59 Connecticut Avenue, downtown, sold for $3.9 million on a $3.995 asking price. I feel for its previous agent, who had the listing from April 2020 to December 31 2020, priced for most of that time at $3.9. She did nothing wrong, and conducted an endless series of public and poker open houses, but the market was dead, and even the best agent can’t revive a corpse singlehandedly.

But every agent has had similar experiences, and it goes with the job, so … onward.
