How to Sell a 360k house in San Jose California
I am looking for some advice on how to market a property in San Jose (Actually Campbell) that my wife an her sister inherited from their mom. This is a unique property in several ways. Any advice on how to market it would be appreciated.
Pro's
- In Campbell CA near the Prune Yard
- Good Neighborhood / location
- In walking distance to downtown.
- Cheaper than almost anything else in the Bay Area
- Low Property taxes
- Cheaper than almost anything else in the Bay Area.
- Community Pool
Cons
- Is a two Bedroom Mobil Home
- Note this community os owned by the residents so no risk of the residents voting to sell the land and evict themselves.
- Community is VERY well kept.
- Is Age restricted to 55+ residents
- Community requires a 700+ FICO score and has to approve all buyers.
- Community restricted to owner occupants (no rentals).
- $473 a month in park fees
- Includes water, cable, and garbage.
So far the realtor has been mostly useless with bad photos and not much advise. My thought is that maybe a professional that needs a place to move their parents might be interested or, if I can find a retired couple that wants to downsize and would sell their home on terms and get a monthly cash payment.
Any other ideas on how to market this and get it sold would be appreciated. Looking for some creative ideas.
