Drastic Drop for 33 Dashiell Hammett
Posted by insidesfre on October 28, 2009
Last sold in 2007 for $1,295,000, 33 Dashiell Hammett went on a resale campaign beginning in early 2008.
The 3BR/2BA Edwardian single-family home tucked on Dashiell Hammett between Pine and Bush/Powell and Joice sailed through list prices like there was no tomorrow: $1,995,000; $1,895,000; $1,795,00; $1,595,000; $1,490,000…And now, it’s officially a short sale with one of the previous listing agents, clocking in at $1,095,000.
There’s a lot of old-world clutter and a decked-out yard, plus one-car parking. In the end, though, will the list price fly with the lender? Only two other homes have sold in what is technically the “downtown” district, and both sold for around $2.3M. I’m betting any buyer who writes an offer at asking will end up being countered. Go to it!
