When a job opportunity took our clients overseas, they decided to rent out their San Francisco condo. It was their first home and where they had started a family.
After a few years, their tenant decided to move out, and our clients realized they no longer wanted the hassle of being long-distance landlords. That's when they again turned to our team at Vivre Real Estate, to help sell their property after moving away.
Having helped them buy this condo nine years ago, we were honored that they chose to work with us again to sell their home from abroad. Our clients interviewed several local agents but ultimately decided they wanted Danielle Lazier in their corner as their San Francisco listing agent.
They knew that they could count on us to handle every detail of their San Francisco home sale, even while they were thousands of miles away.
Living abroad, our clients needed a San Francisco real estate team they could trust to get their condo ready for market.
We took care of all the logistics and preparations, coordinating necessary repairs, deep cleaning, and stylish staging to show the home in its best light. Our team managed all the vendors, communication, and access, allowing our clients to focus on their busy lives overseas.
Curious about Eureka Valley? (If you are well-versed in the joys of this San Francisco neighborhood, feel free to skip ahead!)
For the uninitiated, Eureka Valley is really one of San Francisco's most vibrant and welcoming communities. Centrally-located, the community has a rich history, as well as stunning Victorian and Edwardian architecture and easy access to the city's best parks, restaurants, and entertainment.
Eureka Valley is also a long-time hub for LGBTQ+ activism and culture. The Castro, known as the heart of San Francisco's gay community, features a lively nightlife scene, colorful street art, and the iconic Castro Theatre (which is currently under renovation as of the time of writing in 2024).
For San Francisco homebuyers, Eureka Valley's quiet, tree-lined residential streets offer a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of urban life. Residents enjoy spending time outdoors at nearby Corona Heights Park, Kite Hill, and Mission Dolores Park. To learn more about life in Eureka Valley, explore our in-depth neighborhood guide.
So, how did it all turn out? With a targeted marketing campaign, we attracted serious buyers and hosted well-attended open houses. In just under two weeks, we had sent out 26 disclosure packages to interested parties. When the offers came in, we helped our clients navigate the competitive situation to secure a sales price six figures over asking.
When all was said and done, our clients were thrilled with the outcome of their San Francisco home sale. Despite the obvious challenges to sell a home from abroad, they had peace of mind throughout the process knowing their home was in capable hands.
And thanks to Danielle and her team at Vivre Real Estate, they achieved an impressive return on their SF real estate investment and were able to move forward with the next chapter of their lives.
