For Sale: 8167 Treecrest Ave, Fair Oaks, CA ( Call Tim Pantle-916-834-6376)
Last
week, I decided I will sell my 4BR,2.5B single residence(2200 sq.ft)
with a big yard to a smaller 2BR (+Den perhaps), 2B condo/townhouse so
that I will not be living alone. I have been living alone ( except with
my 2 cats) for over a year. I have decided it is not conducive to a
longer life being isolated and away from your love ones.
The new location is a prestigious Senior 55+ community with all the amenities a senior citizens desires. It will be more expensive but I will live the few remaining years of my life to the fullest. Now I could start playing bridge again and not scared if I fell no one is around to help me.
I have hired several professionals and also with the help of my relatives to get the house ready for the market by April 1 with the hope of closing by June 1. The real estate market here in Northern Ca is slow because of the high mortgage rates. There are more available homes for sale than buyers. But My realtor has listed my home to the lowest estimate based on Comparables of Similar home in my neighborhood.. The plan are as follows:
Dumped all junks and
prepare for the Estate Sale. Removed all clutter as suggested by the
staging Professional. Fixed every thing in the house-both in and
outside.
