CASE STUDY

South Berkeley Fixer

South Berkeley | 2bd + 1 bath | 1,071 sqft
Sold for $1,300,000

This home sits in a lovely pocket of South Berkeley and had all the makings of a classic: great bones, original character, and an abundance of natural light. However, it needed quite a bit of TLC. Think: ceiling damage, pests, abandoned vehicles, and multiple (worn down) structures throughout the backyard. With limited budget and time, we collaborated with the seller to execute a deliberate and thoughtful strategy to transform this fixer into a desirable turnkey. 

The Approach

- New roof and flooring in high traffic areas - Fresh paint - Upgraded lighting - Clean, low-maintenance landscaping - Minimal but impactful staging - Sellers leveraged Compass Concierge financing with a low-interest loan to fund the preparation costs

The Result

In just 3 days on market, this beloved home received an overwhelmingly positive response. - 50+ showings - 3 strong, competitive offers - Final sale of $1,300,000 — $475,000 over asking
