Can’t help but ???? in love with Tudor-style homes.
There are several features that make them “Tudor,” including steeply pitched roofs with multiple gables, decorative brickwork, and often an iron door that gives it a Medieval look.
It’s the tall windows that have numerous square or diamond panes for me! They are so unique and give character to the home! However, “older” homes that feel “outdated” aren’t for everyone. Most first-time buyers are looking for modern and upgraded homes. However, you’d be surprised what you can create from an “old” home. Above is a great example of how YOU can take original architecture and make it modern, all while keeping its traditional features.
Deciding whether an “OLD” home or “NEW” home is for you will depend on several factors, including the amount of work needed to make it functional and what changes you’ll have to do to make it aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
When viewing homes, it’s not always easy to look beyond outdated features, but I promise if you can look beyond paint color and finishes- you’d be surprised what you could find and even create.
Remember, there’s always more to what meets the eye in Real Estate.
Feeling especially grateful to have closed escrow today!
A huge, huge thank you to Daran for kindly trusting and referring my client to me. It was an honor to represent her in the sale of her home and help her close this chapter.
I couldn’t have asked for a more pleasant, patient and understanding seller who trusted me every step of the way!
Real Estate is quite unpredictable. Just 2 days after we hit the market, the unit directly next door to us was listed for almost $50,000 below- making it a tough competition to beat.
However, we stated persistent with open houses, showings and digital marketing. All you need is ONE buyer- and we found him!
Thank you to Melinda Andersen of Chicago Title for doing a special recording today and helping us close on time. Also, thank you Daran for being a wonderful Escrow Officer and helping us every step of the way.
Kids come in all shapes and sizes and not all are in human form.
No matter how big or small, they have a huge impact during the sell of a home.
Keeping the house clean is one of the most challenging task, but it’s essential when trying to capture the right buyer!
A special thank you to Savannah, Toby, Sky, and Coco for dealing with strangers coming in and out of your home until we found Mom and Dad the perfect buyer!!
I know you probably hated me dusting the couch and having to vacate the home during open houses/showings. Although it was a long and bumpy ride, WE did it!
You will be repaid soon with yummy treats. Also, a huge thank you to Matthew and Colleen for not only thinking of me when choosing an agent to represent you, but trusting me with the sale of your home and being patient throughout it all.
Special thank you to our Title Rep, Melinda Andersen with Chicago Title Los Angeles for making it happen and Harbor Lights Escrow for all your help. Also, thank you Holly Kauff for your dedication and professionalism. Cheers!
Exposed Brick is an interior design element that is often found in urban living. An urban modern has touches of brick walls, rugged wood, concrete floors, and enormous steel windows which create a sense of a laid-back and cool vibe. In addition, you will often find an open floor plan and lots of natural light which give the space an open, airy feel.
