Two Under Contract in Less Than 1 Week!

Two of our recent listings were listed, negotiated, and under contract in less than 1 week! The first is my personal house in Grant Park, and the second is a charming cottage in Kirkwood.


It was tough to take my own advice on pricing my house aggressively on the front end -and even tougher to convince my wife! But the results on both of these homes speak for themselves. The best part of these two contracts : they both sold right at or just under list price! This goes to show that if you have a good house that is well staged and priced correctly, it will sell!

These two examples coupled with the recent polls and news mark a case for cautious optimism about the housing market!


As always, feel free to contact me with any questions whatsoever, I love talking real estate!

Thankful for a Renovated House!

Most people who are looking for a home don't consider renovating an ugly house. However, a niche of investors buy these houses, renovate them, and sell them to home owners. I'm lucky enough to know a few of these investors who do an outstanding job bringing homes back to life!

This can also be a great opportunity for buyers looking for a personal home. Recently, I had a client looking for a house in Kirkwood. I had just helped an investor buy a house in the area, and I knew that the finished product is exactly what my other client wanted. However, it needed a complete renovation!

It took some imagination to see the potential in the house, but the buyer was able to do so. We worked out a deal before the renovation was even completed. This gives the buyer the opportunity to pick out custom finishes once the home is under contract. The buyer moved in over Thanksgiving, and all parties are thrilled with how it turned out. Below are some before and after pictures of the home.
