Update: Sold Queen Ann! New(er) Listing on Hawthorne Ridge Court!

Well, first off the GREAT home that was for sale on Queen Ann Drive in Brookfield sold! It received an accepted offer in only 22 days! Pricing under the market worked for this home although it is not always the best thing to do, especially if you do not have equity in the home. These clients decided that they needed to sell quickly, versus waiting it out to possibly receive close to fair market value. Congratulations to the new owner (who grew up in that neighborhood)! You have some work ahead of you, but the returns that you will receive far outweigh the sweat and money you will invest. Congratulations also to the sellers! I'm sure you will find happiness soon! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your cooperation and your business!

While we were going through the process on Queen Ann Drive, Mrs. Seller told me that she had recommended me to a friend who also lives in Brookfield, and also needs to sell their home. I received a call, set the appointment, and went out to take a look at the home. I was amazed! This home sits on top of a hill overlooking all of Brookfield and is on a cul-de-sac! Gorgeous views out of all of the windows and off of the two decks on the back of the home. Furthermore, this house is clean! Hardwood floors, newer carpeting, a gas fireplace, built-in bookcases in the Family Room and built-in buffet in the Dining Room. Spacious bedrooms, updated bathrooms, newer furnace, new water heater, newer roof, gorgeous landscaping! The best part about this house is that it has a full, walk-out basement finished with a great Recreation Room!

The sellers have been on the market for some time and are eager to get this home sold! They wanted to ensure that we were pretty close to market price. We took the price from were it was previously ($304,900) and got it under $300,000. Now it's up to me to market this fantastic home. Aside from this blog, I created a website, added a tour to numerous sites including Facebook and Realtor.com, advertised on 20 or so websites, mailed the area with over 500 mailers and took the stance that we have to tell everybody in the market about this home!

All of the other homes in the neighborhood have sold for well above $300,000, and they didn't have this view!
