Success Story - San Jose

Ironic story, this house was on the market during last summer.  Fixer upper project in the Burbank district of West San Jose, less than 2 miles from the soon to be Google Village in Downtown San Jose.  I put an offer in with another client when it was on the market during last summer.  Didn’t get the deal.  Few months go by, I see this house being advertised online as a for sale by owner. I reached out to the new owner, turns out he lost his job and needed to break even, cut ties from this house.  He hadn’t done a single thing towards the rehab besides getting permits and plans approved for the new construction (new 5 bed / 4 bath house).  Seller was desperate to sell.  Told him to let me find a buyer.  Within 3 days, I got him a offer and he accepted it.  Got him the exact price he asked for.  We reached the finished line this past Monday.
