I have owned this home for 27 years, upgrading it all the time.
Now it is rented, so PLEASE do not knock on the door etc.
It is EASILY worth what I am asking, as you will see even from the street.
I am 70 and need to move, and am looking for a buyer who totally knows and understands
this little incredible neighborhood.
If you are from out of the area, please do not even respond.
I am looking for a buyer, who understands exactly why people go nuts
to find anything in this neighborhood.
This is a two level corner house, and the lower level is NOT a basement.
There is a garage, and the entire lower level could be made into a unit; you will see what I mean.
Please spread the word, to your friends who might know what I am talking about.
I am a retired broker, with a current license, so please have your broker respond, if you prefer.
By the way, I am looking for a strong down payment, and someone who understands
that this is totally an as is sale. I already know, that there are MANY things, the next owner
will want to do to this lovely home. The lower level has another 900 square feet which can easily
be made into three more rooms and the sewer line is totally under the lower level, which means
more bathroom/kitchen down there, and the potential for a separate inlaw there as a matter of fact.
I only wish I was not having to leave the area, as I will sorely
miss this unique neighborhood.
Hey, I am also a nice guy, and would be glad to spend time with anyone, who has an honest motive
and might not quite understand what is going on here.
I am 70 years old, and have had a wonderful life filled with helping people understand and move into Oakland.
NOW I need to retire. SOO whoever buys this home, is in a way, my legacy....(not kidding)
My name is Arthur Pritchard 510 912-2887 is my cell.
Here is a property I own, and used to help as corporate short term housing. Just so you know my background.
and here is some more background on me so you can see I am serious about you as my legacy: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/sub/1173689815.html
