A golden outcome: Key home improvements in short time span yield multiple offers, happy seller

Written by jbobbett2 on .

With only a 12-day window in which to complete our latest project, we had our work cut out for us. We had a pretty significant list of items that needed a little TLC. We refinished the hardwood floors, which date back to the home’s construction in 1956. We also installed new tile in the master bathroom. A fresh coat of paint is one of the best things you can do to immediately give new life to a room. We repainted the interior including the kitchen cabinets. We also made...

We’re back at the amenity-rich home in the cul-de-sac, and it’s hard to believe this is even the same house! Located in La Habra, this house had been occupied by the owner for 38 years. That’s a lot of memories, but also a lot of wear-and-tear on the carpets. New carpets were on the top of our list with this Realtor Redux.

Do photos on your real estate listing show your house or condo in the best light?

Written by jbobbett2 on .

As real estate agents in Fullerton, we spend quite a bit of time scouring photos on the CRMLS. We like to share our favorite photos each week in our “Upcoming Open Houses” feature.

Other times the there’s so much clutter in the photos or the house is vacant and lacks...
