I don't know about you, but I've seen some Sacramento short sales offered at $175,000 in areas and conditions you wouldn't want your dog to live in. This Natomas short sale, on the other hand, is located in the delightful community of Creekside Village, and it's in great shape.
Built in 2003 by KB Homes, it has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. One of those bedrooms is located at the front of the home, near the entry, making it a perfect room for a home office.
The sellers upgraded some of the hardware, put in ceiling fans and installed over-sized travertine tile in the entry, kitchen and baths. The kitchen is huge, with plenty of space for a kitchen table. The kitchen overlooks the back yard, which has a covered patio, and the patio cover stays.
No need to buy any appliances. The following appliances stay: refrigerator, free-standing gas range, and the washer and dryer, plus it has a built-in dishwasher.
The home is located close to parks, restaurants and shopping and about 10 minutes to downtown Sacramento. As an added bonus for home buyers on a budget: no homeowner association dues.
4851 Watseka Way, Sacramento, CA 95835, is offered exclusively by Lyon Real Estate as a short sale at $175,000.

THIS HOME CLOSED ESCROW ON JUNE 15, 2010 AT $175,000.

That house is so adorable. I bet it will be sold before lunchtime today!
Hmm, maybe I should send my under 200k buyer to Sacramento--we can't even find a condo she likes in the South Bay.
Elizabeth - That is a lot of hone for the money, best of luck with a quick short sale!
Elizabeth: You have such a way with words. I've seen some Sacramento short sales offered at $175,000 in areas and conditions you wouldn't want your dog to live in. What a perfect way to contrast this beautiful home to others offered in the same price range.
Hi Elizabeth, This home looks wonderful, I'm sure you have multiple offers already.
Elizabeth,
Nice house you got for sale. I guess you would have a bidding war. Sood luck selling it.
For a short sale it looks like it is well cared for and at a great price.
Cute listing. The kitchen is bright and cheery. Best wishes on the sale!
