3120 Membrillo Corte, Santa Clara – Sold with Full Price Offer

vbrasil — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 05:43:18 +0000

I just closed the sale on this Santa Clara home this past week. My clients have two children and their home was set up to be more conducive to accommodating the children and being comfortable than showing the potential beauty of the home. Like most sellers they wanted to sell for the highest price the market would produce.

They took my advice and were willing to do some important updates to the home such as granite counter tops in the kitchen and bathrooms. The existing carpet was fairly new and they went with neutral and updated paint colors. The home was built 20 years ago, and features a very functional floor plan with high ceilings, a spacious master suite and an open kitchen layout to the family room. All we needed to do was de-clutter the space and bring in some suitable furniture to make the home feel more luxurious and appealing through staging.

Meeting with my clients I presented my marketing plan and the range of prices that their home could receive in the current market. To achieve a price in the top range, I recommended that we do some simple updates like refinishing the hardwood floors, cleaning up the landscaping, and staging the home. They agreed and we went to work. I coordinated with the gardener, the handyman, and rented some furniture and personally made some accents to the home with artwork and accessories to give it a professionally staged look while still making it comfortable for the owners.

In the end we were able to sell the home for full price. Take a look at the slideshow to get an idea of the complete transformation.

Santana Row Loft Successful Short Sale – Sold $515K

vbrasil — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 15:29:29 +0000

333 Santana Row #214, Sold for $515K. 1 Bedroom 1.5 Bath loft with catwalk, popout, large back patio, and 2 parking spots, great deal.

This short sale transaction just closed last week. For those of you who who are considering buying a short sale understand that the most important figures in the transaction are the negotiators, the listing agent, and the buyers agent, and the most important quality they must all poses is diligence.

Short sales are all about paperwork whether the paper work is the short sale package, lender addenda they need to be completed correctly or to the negotiators satisfaction and they need to be submitted in a timely fashion. Its my contention that a short sale can close quickly in 6 weeks, as long as the agents and negotiator are diligently meeting the negotiators request and submitting the paperwork in a timely fashion.

This particular short sale had two loans which made the agent’s diligence even more important and crucial. You have to satisfy the paperwork for two loans, but the complex issue is that the 2nd loan approval cannot be granted until the first is granted. Once the first loan has short sale approval they will offer funds to the second, the agent must find out from the 2nd loan what amount they will request in order to release their lien, and do that before the 1st loan approval expires.

With all the confusion and uncertainty its incredible that these transactions even close, but they do and its my impression that they are not that bad, and do close. The only frustration I feel is the uncertainty and the possibility of being thrown out of contract by a higher offer from another buyer. This can easily happen, be sure to read your addenda and understand the nature of your contract.

In the end because of the buyer’s patience, she got a great deal on this loft. It was really a great property, and I really enjoyed the feeling of being in this property.Similar Posts:
