Sold - $762,000

Listed for $685,000 and sold with 9 offers for $762,000. This charming home on the Cambrian Park Willow Glen border got an impactful makeover prior to listing the home for sale. The result was selling over $40k more than a similar home in the neighborhood 3 months prior. To make it easier on my clients, who were moving to Washington State, I told them to "Just take what you want and leave the rest behind". Then working off a limited budget, we did the following, followed by a multi-pronged marketing approach:
- Removed the trash from the home
- Removed the overgrown landscaping, debris and vines from the grounds of the home
- Installed new landscaping
- Painted inside and out
- Replaced the pet-damaged carpets in the four bedrooms
- Contemporary staging
- Thorough pest and home inspection
"After 25 years in Cambrian Park, we decided it was time to move, but how? The key was the right Realtor - one who had the vision and resources to make our old house into a bright and attractive show piece. Kirsten Reilly had the amazing vision and excellent resources to turn $15,000 of property improvement into $77,000, exceeding even her own estimate of 400-500% return. Her market knowledge and strategic approach were remarkable. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home."
