Selling a home is a significant milestone, and I'm pleased to share a recent successful sale along with two additional properties that are now under contract.
My sellers at 117 Moore Creek Road sold their home for $2,500,000, and I currently have two more listings under contract: 249 Getchell Street and 230 Alhambra Avenue.
Each property represents a different opportunity in the Santa Cruz real estate market. For homeowners considering selling, these recent transactions are also a reminder that an effective real estate strategy starts with understanding your property's individual characteristics, its competition, and the buyers most likely to be interested.
Just Sold: 117 Moore Creek Road, Santa Cruz
Sold for $2,500,000
4 bedrooms
2.5 bathrooms
3,735 square feet
The sale of 117 Moore Creek Road marks an important milestone for my sellers, and I'm delighted to have helped them through the process.
With four bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, and 3,735 square feet of living space, this property offered a substantial amount of room for its next owners.
Every home has its own story, and every sale comes with its own considerations. My role is to guide my clients through the process, help them navigate the decisions involved, and work toward a successful outcome.
I'm grateful to my sellers for trusting me with this important transaction.
Two More Santa Cruz Properties Under Contract
In addition to the Moore Creek Road sale, two of my listings are now under contract.
249 Getchell Street, Santa Cruz
Listed at $1,995,000
3 bedrooms
2 bathrooms
1,534 square feet
This three-bedroom property represents another active transaction in the Santa Cruz market. With 1,534 square feet of living space, it offers a different property profile from the larger Moore Creek Road home.
Having a property under contract is an important step toward closing, and I'll continue working with my clients through the remaining stages of the transaction.
230 Alhambra Avenue, Santa Cruz
Listed at $1,485,000
3 bedrooms
2.5 bathrooms
1,558 square feet
The third property is a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home with 1,558 square feet.
With a different asking price and property configuration from the other two homes, it illustrates why real estate decisions should be tailored to each property's features, location, and competitive market.
Both listings are under contract, and I look forward to helping my clients navigate the next steps.
What These Transactions Mean for Santa Cruz Home Sellers
If you're considering selling a home in Santa Cruz, you may be wondering what recent sales and pending transactions mean for your property.
The answer depends on several factors.
Your home's location matters. Neighborhood, street, proximity to amenities, and property-specific characteristics can all influence buyer interest.
Your asking price matters. Recent comparable sales and competing listings help establish a realistic pricing strategy.
Your property's presentation matters. Preparation, photography, staging where appropriate, and clear marketing can help prospective buyers understand a home's value.
Your selling goals matter. Your ideal timing, financial priorities, and plans for your next move should all inform the strategy.
A successful sale isn't simply about putting a property on the market. It's about understanding the home, identifying its likely audience, and making informed decisions throughout the selling process.
