Bait and Switch!
In March 2026, I received a preliminary offer from Opendoor for my house of $1,926,100 and in August 2026 I received an "updated" offer of $1,780,000 (both offers were sight unseen and made without Opendoor physically walking thru my house). At the end of August, I uploaded 63 pictures of my house thru the Opendoor app, which highlighted that we have completely remodeled the kitchen, completely remodeled all bathrooms and the backyard; have upgraded all of the flooring; and the house is in very good operating shape. A couple of days later, I received Opendoor's final offer of $1,560,000. The exercise was a total waste of time and their final offer was frankly insulting and made no logical sense (unless their standard M.O. is to bait and switch). I tried Opendoor because I had heard that they had higher fees but were fair in their valuations. For my experience, that assessment of them proved to be very inaccurate.
