The Eagle Rock Sale That Took 11 Days

Three years after I helped my client buy 5213 Townsend Avenue, they called me again. Life had moved on, and it was time for a new chapter somewhere else.

I'm Breanne Wahl, a Los Angeles real estate agent with ACME | SERHANT. In 2015, I represented them on the sale of their Eagle Rock home: a 1925 house with three bedrooms, two baths, 1,580 square feet and a pool.

Priced well, marketed well

There's no secret here. We priced it well, and we marketed it well. That's the job, and it's what I do.

About 10 offers

We listed at $799,000. In 11 days we had about 10 offers, and it closed for $900,000, $101,000 over asking.

Full circle

They bought it with me for $755,000 in 2012 and sold it with me for $900,000 in 2015. It all started with a Halloween Danzig show and their bandmate, a regular from my bartending days who bought a little house on Avenue 46.
