Another successful sale on the Peninsula, my life-long back yard!
I want to thank Bill and Chris for bringing me this listing. I've known Chris for what could be described as, forever, officially. I think we met in Junior High, and fellow Mills High Alum. And Bill was acting property manager for their neighbor who had this home as a rental for decades. Owner lived in Taiwan, and was ready to cash in her retirement nest egg.
With Bill's help, we swung into action and polished up this diamond in the rough, literally! Interior and Exterior Paint, kitchen cabinet paint, and refinishing the original hardwood/oak floors with a medium grey stain, gave everything a clean, look with a modern bend.
Special thanks to these guys, who, after hearing me say: "Oh yeah, the original Corian counters were designed to be sanded and re-buffed. No, I swear it's true."... swung into action with a Youtube video and an orbital sander, and rebuffed that baby themselves! This is one of those chores that you ask to the trades people (contractor, handyman, floor guy... anyone with power tools who would listen) to do, and they look at you like you're crazy for suggesting they take a sander to the counter top. But yeah. These guys said... that looks easy. And it made all the difference in the presentation of this home.
We got 4 offers, and went $170,000 over asking. Happy Seller. Happy Neighbors!
How may I help you achieve your ?
Call me today and let's discuss!
