Winstanley Report
This has to be the most Zillow views we've had on a listing during the first day on the market. Between the two copies of the video tour (one is non-branded), there have been 159 views. The house has been shown four times in person. Housing is essential for some....
Selling Your House During Coronavirus

Carmel Valley REO Closed
We featured this bank-owned property earlier as an online auction (which didn't work out). They did find a cash buyer - I hope they got in the house to take a look around! This is a typical example of an REO sale these days. The former owners paid $1,650,000 in 2007,...
