In this slow real estate market, some realtors are thinking outside the box to get their house to sell. Take 218 Bogert Ave., for example. This three-bedroom, three-bathroom home in West Lansing has been on and off the market four times since 2023 without selling. The living room. It was first listed for $1,599,000, but after a month on the market, owners took it down. They then performed a couple of upgrades in the house, like painting the kitchen cabinets, and re-listed it for $1,698,000.But, it still didn't sell.  A bedroom. Most recently, it was listed again for $1,888,000.
