This beautiful hillside home on Kelton sits on a quiet, tree-lined street in the Palms neighborhood near Culver City. When our clients identified this property as their potential forever-property, they knew it would need improvement to make it their own, but its potential was obvious. After numerous visits to the property to make sure our clients were prepared to undertake this project, we faced the next hurdle of beating out multiple other offers for the home. Through our client preparation and offer presentation, we were able to beat out those offers without offering more than the list price. Given that our clients intended to remodel the home, and that the home had not been improved for many years, the inspection process was critical to insure that our clients were informed about all aspects of the home. We also made sure that our clients were able to meet with contractors to obtain an understanding of the scope and cost of the project at hand. Through that process, we were ultimately able to negotiate a significant price reduction of over $100,000 from the purchase price, as well as a credit against all of our client’s closing costs. A smooth 30 days after the opening of escrow, our clients became the new owners of this beautiful home on Kelton avenue, and can now turn it into their dream home.
