Just Listed: Fixer Home for Sale in West Sacramento

821 Kegle Dr, West Sacramento, CA 95605 is available at $209K.

My new listing is a fixer home for sale in West Sacramento. I have not inspected this home since April of last year, so its condition is unknown, and we have tried to price it accordingly. The price should make up for any unexpected surprises. I’ve been told that when the previous occupants moved out, they broke a few things and squatters might have moved in. I even listed the occupant’s name as Squatters and the phone number as 9-1-1 in MLS, yet agents still email this Sacramento Realtor to ask if they can use conventional financing and ask when they can show it.

I realize we have little inventory in the greater Sacramento region and everybody is desperate for listings, but still, agents should read the listing, you would think. They would see that conventional financing is not listed as an option. Financing option is cash or submit, meaning maybe hard money would be OK.

The last time I saw this fixer home for sale in West Sacramento, it was in pretty good shape. Perhaps a little dry rot and deferred maintenance, but a family lived there. Most of the flooring is ceramic and laminate. The home features 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, but one of the bedrooms is a garage conversion, which doesn’t appear to be permitted.

We are looking for a fast sale and the first offer that can quickly close at list price or better will get this house. We’re not vying for multiple offers or trying to drive up the price. The seller is out of area and never lived at this property. Comparable sales average near $265,000. If you do write an offer, please use the Notice of Default contract form. If this went to trustee’s sale in June, it would sell for more than this list price. Your opportunity is NOW.

There are no keys available for this fixer home for sale in West Sacramento, and it is sold strictly AS IS. Inspect at your own risk. That is the reason for the low price. 821 Kegle Dr, West Sacramento, CA 95605 is listed exclusively by Elizabeth Weintraub and Lyon Real Estate at $209K. Call Elizabeth for more information at 916.233.6759.
