The potentially wild and crazy Slider Contest (that I said could go $100,000-$200,000 in either direction) came to a rather unremarkable close yesterday.
The list price was $995,000, and it closed for $1,000,000 cash:
I’ll give doughboy, a 2x past client (and future), the contest tickets to the Giants game on September 2nd. Because I am out of tickets, if the other four want to email me any favorite teams or dates, I will pick-up tickets for you.
James D., winner of the last contest, sent this photo in from the game last night where he got to enjoy a 4-2 Padres victory while sitting among the usual throng of Cardinal fans – though not as many as he expected!
We started the guess-the-sales-price contest prior to 517 N. Cedros hitting the market, so there was little guidance on what to expect – none of these row houses have sold in more than a year!
Petra and greenlander guessed the same amount, $875,500 so they are both winners of two VIP tickets to the Fiesta del Sol in Solana Beach on the weekend of June 2nd & 3rd. The English Beat are the headliners:
They had the goofy ‘no offers for 0-7 days’, and then the ‘owner-occ offers only for 8-14th day’ policy, but the bank let it run past the 15th day so they could consider all offers.
It listed for $749,000 on Jan. 3rd, and went pending on Jan. 25th.
Today it closed for $879,000 cash!
All my luck – we have two winners again!
$878,000 – Kryx
$880,000 – Myriad
Both will receive dinner for two at the Marine Room down the street – Congratulations!
See the other guesses in the comment section – and thanks for participating!
If you are picky about what you’re going to buy, and will only offer on quality properties that are priced attractively, then you need to have an effective bidding-war strategy.
Practice on this one!
Leave your guess on what the sales price will be in the comment section. The closest guesser will receive dinner for two at the oceanfront Marine Room down the street!
